Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP3

The NM_004993.6(ATXN3):​c.915_916insCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAG​(p.Gln305_Gly306insGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGlnGln) variant causes a conservative inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. There is a variant allele frequency bias in the population database for this variant (GnomAd4), which may indicate mosaicism or somatic mutations in the reference population data. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.

Genes affected
ATXN3 (HGNC:7106): (ataxin 3) Machado-Joseph disease, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia-3, is an autosomal dominant neurologic disorder. The protein encoded by this gene contains (CAG)n repeats in the coding region, and the expansion of these repeats from the normal 12-44 to 52-86 is one cause of Machado-Joseph disease. There is a negative correlation between the age of onset and CAG repeat numbers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
