Genes affected

UBTF (HGNC:12511): (upstream binding transcription factor) This gene encodes a member of the HMG-box DNA-binding protein family. The encoded protein plays a critical role in ribosomal RNA transcription as a key component of the pre-initiation complex, mediating the recruitment of RNA polymerase I to rDNA promoter regions. The encoded protein may also play important roles in chromatin remodeling and pre-rRNA processing, and its activity is regulated by both phosphorylation and acetylation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on the short arm of chromosomes 3, 11 and X and the long arm of chromosome 11. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ATXN7L3-AS1 (HGNC:55298): (ATXN7L3 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-44207710-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-44207710-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 504357.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The Q672X variant in the UBTF gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The Q672X variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret Q672X as a likely pathogenic variant. -
