New York Genome Center | RCV002227741 | SCV002506843 | uncertain significance | Ataxia-hypogonadism-choroidal dystrophy syndrome; Laurence-Moon syndrome; Hereditary spastic paraplegia 39; Trichomegaly-retina pigmentary degeneration-dwarfism syndrome | 2021-07-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The inherited c.29C>G (p.Thr10Arg) variant identified in the PNPLA6 gene substitutes a moderately conserved Threonine for Arginine at amino acid 10/1366 (exon 1/32). This variant is found with low frequency in gnomAD(v3.1.1) (5 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes; allele frequency: 3.29e-5) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. In silico algorithms predict this variant to be Damaging (SIFT; score: 0.007) andBenign (REVEL; score: 0.1609) to the function of the canonical transcript. It is absent from ClinVar and to our current knowledge has not been reported in affectedindividuals in the literature. The p.Thr10 residue is not within a mapped domain of PNPLA6 (UniProtKB:Q8IY17). Given the lack of compelling evidence for itspathogenicity, the inherited c.29C>G (p.Thr10Arg) variant identified in the PNPLA6 gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
