Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2BP4_StrongBP7
The NM_018367.7(ACER3):c.426G>T(p.Pro142Pro) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P142P) has been classified as Benign.
ACER3 (HGNC:16066): (alkaline ceramidase 3) Enables N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase activity and metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including myelination; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and sphingolipid metabolic process. Is integral component of Golgi membrane and integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.
