RCV000413872 | SCV000491504 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2016-06-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1188+1G>A variant in the PNKP gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice donor site in intron 13. It is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, either leading to an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, or to an abnormal protein product if the message is used for protein translation. The c.1188+1G>A variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The c.1188+1G>A variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant, however the possibility it may be a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. |

RCV001378231 | SCV001575759 | likely pathogenic | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 12 | 2022-01-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372961). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PNKP-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 13 of the PNKP gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in PNKP are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20118933, 25728773). |
