Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000780585 SCV000917981 likely pathogenic Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2018-05-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: PEX1 c.547C>T (p.Arg183X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. c.2097dupT, p.Ile700fsX42; c.2368C>T, p.Arg790X; c.2916delA, p.Gly973fsX16). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.2e-06 in 244450 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PEX1 causing Zellweger Syndrome (8.2e-06 vs 3.90e-03), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.547C>T, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome (Ebberink_2010, Yik_2009). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
Invitae RCV001376604 SCV001220652 pathogenic Zellweger spectrum disorders 2023-10-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg183*) in the PEX1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031596, 26387595, 31831025). This variant is present in population databases (rs149806989, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Zellweger syndrome (PMID: 19105186). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371782). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
