RCV001391663 | SCV001593286 | uncertain significance | XFE progeroid syndrome; Fanconi anemia complementation group Q | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The heterozygous transversion from C to T at position 14020501 on chromosome 16 was covered with 348 reads and is found with a variant allele frequency (VAF) of 48% in the index patient. The variant is of paternal origin and was covered with a coverage 110 reads and a VAF of 50% in the father. The variant results in the exchange of the amino acid argenine conserved across multiple species to cysteine at position 158 in ERCC4. Bioinformatic prediction programs such as Sift, MutationTaster, and UMD Predicor classify the variant c.472C>T as pathogenic with a CADD score of 25.5. PolyPhen, Provean, EIGN, Meta-SVM, Revel, and MutationAssessor classify this variant as tolerant. The variant is located in a region of high tolerance to sense-changing variation in MetaDome. However, a variant in the immediate vicinity (p.Arg153Pro, ClinVar Variation ID: 16581) has been described as pathogenic for XFE progeroid syndrome. In a model (UniProt ID: 6SXB) of the tertiary complex structure of ERCC4 (XPF) with ERCC1 and DNA, the arginine158 is part of a loop on the surface of ERCC4 in the conserved helicase-like domain (disrupted helicase domain). The amino acid substitution p.Arg158Cys is located 21 codons downstream of the conserved helicase motif YRAH and four codons downstream of the pathogenic variant p.Arg153Pro (Figure 4). According to ACMG guidelines, c.472C>T is classified as a variant of unclear clinical significance (VUKS). Classification according to ACMG guidelines of c.472C>T:p.(Arg158Cys) in ERCC4: VUKS. - PM1: The variant is located in a mutational hotspot and/or a critical and well-established functional domain. - PM2: The variant was rarely identified (3 heterozygous carriers in 141429 individuals; allele fre-quency 1.06*10-5) in population genetic studies (GnomAD) and never observed in homozygous status. - BP4: Bioinformatic prediction programs classify this variant predominantly as tolerant | |
