Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute	RCV002471665	SCV002769109	pathogenic	Cohen syndrome	2022-02-02	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Cohen syndrome (MIM#216550). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar). (SP) 0807 - This variant has no previous evidence of pathogenicity. (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1102 - Strong phenotype match for this individual. (SP) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV002471665	SCV004313555	pathogenic	Cohen syndrome	2023-08-07	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu87Asnfs*4) in the VPS13B gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in VPS13B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15141358, 16648375, 20461111). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1805247). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VPS13B-related conditions.
