RCV001046665 | SCV001210578 | likely pathogenic | Cernunnos-XLF deficiency | 2019-01-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 5 of the NHEJ1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs753495484, ExAC 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with NHEJ1-related conditions. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NHEJ1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16439204, 20597108). 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. |
