Genes affected

TH (HGNC:11782): (tyrosine hydroxylase) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the conversion of tyrosine to dopamine. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of catecholamines, hence plays a key role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive Segawa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.

Autosomal recessive DOPA responsive dystonia Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Apr 11, 2020	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jul 19, 2022	This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the TH gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TH protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 583092). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
