RCV001003472 | SCV001161761 | likely pathogenic | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 1 | 2017-11-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | [ACMG/AMP: PS2, PM2, PP2, PP3]; A de novo mosaic variant [PS2] within the ARX gene was detected and confirmed by sanger sequencing. This alteration results in the replacement of a glycine residue with a serine at amino acid 482 (p.Gly482Ser), and occurs at a position which is evolutionarily conserved and predicated to have a deleterious effect based on in silico modeling [PP3]. Notably, a single hemizygous allele with the p.Gly482Ser variant has been reported in the gnomAD population database among approximately 140,000 total alleles at that position [PM2]. The spectrum of disease associated variation within ARX is broad, and includes polyalanine expansion, truncating alterations, insertion deletion events and missense changes (PMID: 17668384; 20300201). Missense variants are a common mechanism of disease in this gene and the rate of benign missense variants is low [PP2]. Mosaicism has been previously documented in ARX (PMID: 16523516). |
