RCV003488781 | SCV004232671 | uncertain significance | Leukodystrophy | 2024-01-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | curation | The p.Gly1335Arg variant in POLR3A has been reported in 1 individual with hypomyelinating leukodystrophy (PMID: 30323018), and has been identified in 0.003% (1/30616) of South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs768222183). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 549570) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by Tartaglia Lab (Genetics and Rare Diseases Research Division, Bambino Gesu' Children's Hospital) and pathogenic by OMIM. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. The p.Gly1335Arg variant is located in a region of POLR3A that is essential to protein folding and stability, suggesting that this variant is in a functional domain and slightly supports pathogenicity (PMID: 30323018). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM1_supporting, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). |
