Genes affected

SLC39A5 (HGNC:20502): (solute carrier family 39 member 5) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ZIP family of zinc transporters that transport zinc into cells from outside, and play a crucial role in controlling intracellular zinc levels. Zinc is an essential cofactor for many enzymes and proteins involved in gene transcription, growth, development and differentiation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant high myopia (MYP24). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 12-56231498-T-TG is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-56231498-T-TG is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1285407.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
