Genes affected
PLEKHG5 (HGNC:29105): (pleckstrin homology and RhoGEF domain containing G5) This gene encodes a protein that activates the nuclear factor kappa B (NFKB1) signaling pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive distal spinal muscular atrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

The PLEKHG5 c.2166_2168dupGGA; p.Glu723dup variant (rs113541584), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 297949). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.033% (75/226000 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant deletes a single glutamate residue leaving the rest of the protein in-frame. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -

The c.2166_2168dupGGA variant (also known as p.E723dup) is located in coding exon 18 of the PLEKHG5 gene. This variant results from an in-frame duplication of 3 nucleotides at positions 2166 to 2168. This results in the duplication of a glutamic acid residue at codon 723. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

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

In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on PLEKHG5 function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the duplicated amino acid is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a PLEKHG5-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 297949). This variant is present in population databases (rs756583787, ExAC 0.07%). This variant, c.2166_2168dupGGA, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid to the PLEKHG5 protein (p.Glu723dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
