Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1PM2
The NM_001326342.2(CELF2):c.1316_1317delTT(p.Phe439TyrfsTer27) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
CELF2 (HGNC:2550): (CUGBP Elav-like family member 2) Members of the CELF/BRUNOL protein family contain two N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains, one C-terminal RRM domain, and a divergent segment of 160-230 aa between the second and third RRM domains. Members of this protein family regulate pre-mRNA alternative splicing and may also be involved in mRNA editing, and translation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation in a gene or region of a gene for which loss of function is not a well-established mechanism of disease; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
