Genes affected
PEX16 (HGNC:8857): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 16) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral peroxisomal membrane protein. An inactivating nonsense mutation localized to this gene was observed in a patient with Zellweger syndrome of the complementation group CGD/CG9. Expression of this gene product morphologically and biochemically restores the formation of new peroxisomes, suggesting a role in peroxisome organization and biogenesis. Alternative splicing has been observed for this gene and two variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: PEX16 c.859C>T (p.Arg287Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250094 control chromosomes.. c.859C>T has been reported in the literature in three siblings from the same family who were affected with Peroxisome Biogenesis Disorders, Zellweger Syndrome Spectrum (e.g., Al-Shamsi_2016, Zaabi_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27391121, 30078639). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 561075). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 287 of the PEX16 protein (p.Arg287Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs769772100, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of peroxisome biogenesis disorder (PMID: 30078639). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 561075). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PEX16 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg287 amino acid residue in PEX16. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with PEX16-related conditions (PMID: 31227335), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
