Genes affected
PRDM16 (HGNC:14000): (PR/SET domain 16) The reciprocal translocation t(1;3)(p36;q21) occurs in a subset of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This gene is located near the 1p36.3 breakpoint and has been shown to be specifically expressed in the t(1:3)(p36,q21)-positive MDS/AML. The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger transcription factor and contains an N-terminal PR domain. The translocation results in the overexpression of a truncated version of this protein that lacks the PR domain, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of MDS and AML. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: PRDM16 c.2809C>G (p.Pro937Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.1e-05 in 246680 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PRDM16 causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (5e-05). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2809C>G in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406243). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2809C>G (p.P937A) alteration is located in exon 11 (coding exon 11) of the PRDM16 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2809, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 937 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Left ventricular noncompaction 8 Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 937 of the PRDM16 protein (p.Pro937Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs374972823, gnomAD 0.09%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PRDM16-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406243). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
