Genes affected
WDR73 (HGNC:25928): (WD repeat domain 73) The protein encoded by this gene is thought to contain multiple WD40 repeats. WD40 repeats are motifs that contain 40-60 amino acids, and usually end with Trp-Asp (WD). This protein is found in the cytoplasm during interphase, but accumulates at the spindle poles and astral microtubules during mitosis. Reduced expression of this gene results in abnormalities in the size and morphology of the nucleus. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Galloway-Mowat syndrome PMID: 25466283), which is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that affects both the central nervous system and kidneys. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 25, 2022This sequence change results in a frameshift in the WDR73 gene (p.Arg378Alafs*25). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 1 amino acid(s) of the WDR73 protein and extend the protein by 23 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs775472894, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WDR73-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 286399). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 10, 2024Variant summary: WDR73 c.1132delC (p.Arg378AlafsX25) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.001 in 1553860 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. c.1132delC has been reported in the homozygous state in a consanguineous couple who had a deceased daughter, however, other pathogenic variants were also reported (IGHMPB2, DYNC2H1) and mimimal phenotype data was provided (Sallevelt_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Galloway-Mowat Syndrome 1. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33742171). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 286399). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
