Genetic Variant TWNK:p.Arg374Trp (chr10-100989330-C-T) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (17 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_021830.5(TWNK):c.1120C>T(p.Arg374Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,614,024 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R374Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

TWNK (HGNC:1160): (twinkle mtDNA helicase) This gene encodes a hexameric DNA helicase which unwinds short stretches of double-stranded DNA in the 5' to 3' direction and, along with mitochondrial single-stranded DNA binding protein and mtDNA polymerase gamma, is thought to play a key role in mtDNA replication. The protein localizes to the mitochondrial matrix and mitochondrial nucleoids. Mutations in this gene cause infantile onset spinocerebellar ataxia (IOSCA) and progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO) and are also associated with several mitochondrial depletion syndromes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

MRPL43 (HGNC:14517): (mitochondrial ribosomal protein L43) Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomal proteins are encoded by nuclear genes and help in protein synthesis within the mitochondrion. Mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) consist of a small 28S subunit and a large 39S subunit. They have an estimated 75% protein to rRNA composition compared to prokaryotic ribosomes, where this ratio is reversed. Another difference between mammalian mitoribosomes and prokaryotic ribosomes is that the latter contain a 5S rRNA. Among different species, the proteins comprising the mitoribosome differ greatly in sequence, and sometimes in biochemical properties, which prevents easy recognition by sequence homology. This gene encodes a 39S subunit protein. This gene and the gene for a semaphorin class 4 protein (SEMA4G) overlap at map location 10q24.31 and are transcribed in opposite directions. Sequence analysis identified multiple transcript variants encoding at least four different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_021830.5

PM5

Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr10-100989331-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 426106.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 36 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 6 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.6071 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.58 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions, autosomal dominant 3, mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 7 (hepatocerebral type), Perrault syndrome, autosomal dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia, mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome, hepatocerebrorenal form.

PP3

MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.958

PP5

Variant 10-100989330-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-100989330-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 4629.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
