Genes affected

IGHMBP2 (HGNC:5542): (immunoglobulin mu DNA binding protein 2) This gene encodes a helicase superfamily member that binds a specific DNA sequence from the immunoglobulin mu chain switch region. Mutations in this gene lead to spinal muscle atrophy with respiratory distress type 1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Canonical splice site: predicted to alter splicing and result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function. Multiple pathogenic loss-of-function variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic without evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000204303 /PMID: 23566544). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 3 of the IGHMBP2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in IGHMBP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14681881, 25439726, 25568292). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of distal hereditary motor neuropathy (PMID: 23566544, 25568292). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 204303). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site.
