RCV000413144 | SCV000491194 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2016-09-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The P69R likely pathogenic variant has been previously reported as an assumed de novo variant identified in an individual with cataracts, blindness, sensorineural hearing loss, seizures, brachycephaly, facial dysmorphism, short stature, intellectual disability and autistic features (Gripp et al., 1996; Niceta et al., 2015). Functional and expression studies have shown P69R exhibits less activity than wild type and impairs phosphorylation of the MAF protein by altering a Proline residue adjacent to the phosphorylation site (Niceta et al., 2015). The P69R variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, missense variants in nearby residues have not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with MAF-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014). Therefore, the P69R variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. |
