16-51635-C-G

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM2PM5PP2PP3

The NM_016310.5(POLR3K):​c.122G>C​(p.Arg41Pro) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,518 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R41W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
POLR3K (HGNC:14121): (RNA polymerase III subunit K) This gene encodes a small essential subunit of RNA polymerase III, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing transfer and small ribosomal RNAs in eukaryotes. The carboxy-terminal domain of this subunit shares a high degree of sequence similarity to the carboxy-terminal domain of an RNA polymerase II elongation factor. This similarity in sequence is supported by functional studies showing that this subunit is required for proper pausing and termination during transcription. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 13 and 17.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
POLR3K Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • leukodystrophy, hypomyelinating, 21

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-51636-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1065610.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 2 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 0 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.088583 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.18956 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to leukodystrophy, hypomyelinating, 21.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.791
