Genes affected
GPHN (HGNC:15465): (gephyrin) This gene encodes a neuronal assembly protein that anchors inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors to the postsynaptic cytoskeleton via high affinity binding to a receptor subunit domain and tubulin dimers. In nonneuronal tissues, the encoded protein is also required for molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene may be associated with the neurological condition hyperplexia and also lead to molybdenum cofactor deficiency. Numerous alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described; however, the full-length nature of all transcript variants is not currently known.

Variant summary: GPHN c.127G>T (p.Val43Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the MoaB/Mog domain (IPR001453) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0074 in 250762 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.012 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 10 homozygotes. The variant, c.127G>T, has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency Due To Molybdenum Cofactor Deficiency Type C, however, it was found in heterozygous state in 10 / 558 unrelated Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) patients (Lionel_2013), i.e. with an allele frequency of 0.009, which is comparable to the allele frequency in the general population. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have classified the variant as benign (n=1) or likely benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.
