Invitae RCV001201363 SCV000938495 pathogenic Zellweger spectrum disorders 2024-01-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln261Argfs*8) 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 (rs749067142, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PMID: 19105186, 23247051). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188910). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001194278 SCV001363676 pathogenic Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2019-01-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The variant, PEX1 c.782_783delAA (p.Gln261ArgfsX8) 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.2916delA(p.Gly973fsX16)). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.7e-05 in 243912 control chromosomes (gnomAD) and has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Zellweger syndrome spectrum disorder (ZSS) and Zellweger Syndrome (Ebberink_2010, Yik_2009, Sun_2013) . These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV003162722 SCV003903720 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2023-02-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.782_783delAA (p.Q261Rfs*8) alteration, located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the PEX1 gene, consists of a deletion of 2 nucleotides from position 782 to 783, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 8 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the c.782_783delAA allele has an overall frequency of 0.004% (9/249146) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.013% (4/30214) of South Asian alleles. This variant has been reported compound heterozygous with other PEX1 variants in individuals with features consistent with PEX1-related peroxisome biogenesis spectrum disorder (Yik, 2009; Sun, 2013; Lu, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
