RCV001928785 | SCV002204213 | pathogenic | Vici syndrome | 2023-10-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change inserts a large fragment of DNA, likely a transposable element, in exon 29 of the EPG5 gene (c.5022_5023ins?), causing a frameshift at codon 1675 (p.Thr1675fs). The exact size and sequence of the insertion cannot be determined by the current assay. However, the insertion is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EPG5-related conditions. Retrotransposon insertions including LINE1 (L1), Alu, and SVA (SINE-VNTR-Alu) have been reported to be disease-causing through disruption of either a coding region or splice site (PMID: 19763152, 20307669, 22406018) and loss-of-function variants in EPG5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23222957, 23674064). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
