RCV001004946 | SCV001164471 | uncertain significance | Congenital nonprogressive myopathy with Moebius and Robin sequences | 2018-12-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | research | The heterozygous c.399+5G>A variant in TMEM8C was identified by our study in the compound heterozygous state, with a likely pathogenic variant, in one individual with Carey-Finteman-Ziter syndrome. The presence of this variant in combination with a pathogenic variant and in an individual with Carey-Finteman-Ziter syndrome increases the likelihood that the c.399+5G>A variant is pathogenic. This variant is located in the 5' splice region. Computational tools do suggest an impact to splicing as well as a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay and an abnormal or truncated protein. No likely pathogenic or pathogenic loss of function variants in the MYMK (alternative name for TMEM8C) gene have been reported in ClinVar, though knock-out animal models in zebrafish do have a phenotype that matches aspects of Carey-Finteman-Ziter syndrome (PMID: 30016436). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PP3, PM3_Supporting (Richards 2015). |

In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32528171) |
