RCV000826194 | SCV000967744 | pathogenic | Kleefstra syndrome due to a point mutation | 2018-10-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Val1156X variant in KMT2C has not been previously reported in diseased ind ividuals, nor in large population studies. However, this variant was confirmed t o be de novo in an individual with mild intellectual disability, autism, seizure s, sensorineural hearing loss, gastroparesis, and supraventricular tachycardia b y the Broad Institute Rare Genomes Project. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at positio n 1156 and leads to a premature termination codon at this position. This alterat ion is then predicted to lead to absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function o f the KMT2C gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with Kleefst ra 2 syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as patho genic for Kleefstra 2 syndrome in an autosomal dominant manner based upon de nov o occurrence, its absence from the general population, and its predicted impact on the protein.
