RCV002244213 | SCV003761272 | uncertain significance | Neurodegeneration, childhood-onset, stress-induced, with variable ataxia and seizures | 2023-01-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | curation | The homozygous p.Tyr346Ter variant in ADPRHL2 was identified by our study in one individual with ataxia. The p.Tyr346Ter variant in ADPRHL2 has been previously reported in one individual with stress-induced childhood-onset neurodegeneration with variable ataxia and seizures (PMID: 30401461), but has been identified in 0.009% (3/34588) of Latino/Admixed American chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs531916765). 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. The individual previously reported (PMID: 30401461) and the individual identified by our study were homozygotes, which increases the likelihood that the p.Tyr346Ter variant is pathogenic. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 1683692) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by the Laboratorio de Genetica e Diagnostico Molecular, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 346. This alteration occurs within the terminal 50 bases of the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. Loss of function of the ADPRHL2 gene is strongly associated to autosomal recessive stress-induced childhood-onset neurodegeneration with variable ataxia and seizures. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Tyr346Ter variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PM3 (Richards 2015). |
