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]

The missense variant p.R96K in WDR73 (NM_032856.5) has been reported previously in affected individuals (Vodopiutz J et al; Rosti et al). It has been submitted to ClinVar as Likely pathogenic/Pathogenic. The p.R96K variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. In silico tools predict the variant to be damaging and the residue is conserved across species. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic -

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. In silico tools predict the variant to alter splicing and produce an abnormal transcript (SpliceAI: 0.89). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000208470 / PMID: 26123727). The variant has been reported to co-segregate with the disease in at least one similarly affected relative/individual in the same family or similarly affected unrelated family (PMID: 27001912). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
