Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_006279.5(ST3GAL3):c.25A>C(p.Asn9His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,614,064 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N9S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
ST3GAL3 (HGNC:10866): (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 3) The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to galactose-containing substrates. The encoded protein is normally found in the Golgi apparatus but can be proteolytically processed to a soluble form. This protein is a member of glycosyltransferase family 29. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of autosomal recessive nonsymdromic cognitive disability as well as infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.25A>C (p.N9H) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the ST3GAL3 gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 25, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 9 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
