Genes affected

ACAN (HGNC:319): (aggrecan) This gene is a member of the aggrecan/versican proteoglycan family. The encoded protein is an integral part of the extracellular matrix in cartilagenous tissue and it withstands compression in cartilage. Mutations in this gene may be involved in skeletal dysplasia and spinal degeneration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been observed in this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Start lost variant, no new inframe start found.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

The c.3G>A variant in the ACAN gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. As the c.3G>A variant changes the translation initiator Methionine codon, the resultant protein is described as p.Met1?, using a question mark to signify that it is not known if the loss of Met1 means that all protein translation is completely prevented or if an abnormal protein is produced using an alternate Methionine. The c.3G>A variant was not observed in approximately 6,200 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.3G>A as a variant of uncertain significance. -
