Genes affected
WWOX (HGNC:12799): (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg54*) in the WWOX gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in WWOX are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24456803, 25411445). This variant is present in population databases (rs587777248, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with WWOX-related conditions (PMID: 24456803). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 120325). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
