Genes affected
PIGQ (HGNC:14135): (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class Q) This gene is involved in the first step in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This gene encodes a N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase component that is part of the complex that catalyzes transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) from UDP-GlcNAc to phosphatidylinositol (PI). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Epilepsy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 14, 2022This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 159 of the PIGQ protein (p.Thr159Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs377253487, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PIGQ-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 526272). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
