Genes affected
GRN (HGNC:4601): (granulin precursor) Granulins are a family of secreted, glycosylated peptides that are cleaved from a single precursor protein with 7.5 repeats of a highly conserved 12-cysteine granulin/epithelin motif. The 88 kDa precursor protein, progranulin, is also called proepithelin and PC cell-derived growth factor. Cleavage of the signal peptide produces mature granulin which can be further cleaved into a variety of active, 6 kDa peptides. These smaller cleavage products are named granulin A, granulin B, granulin C, etc. Epithelins 1 and 2 are synonymous with granulins A and B, respectively. Both the peptides and intact granulin protein regulate cell growth. However, different members of the granulin protein family may act as inhibitors, stimulators, or have dual actions on cell growth. Granulin family members are important in normal development, wound healing, and tumorigenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 29, 2016The p.R212W variant (also known as c.634C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the GRN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 634. The arginine at codon 212 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. In one study, this alteration was identified in one unaffected control and in a individual with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) (Yu CE et al. Arch. Neurol., 2010 Feb;67:161-70). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
GRN-related frontotemporal lobar degeneration with Tdp43 inclusions;C3539123:Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 11 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 24, 2023In 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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GRN protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 588484). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with frontotemporal dementia (PMID: 20142524). This variant is present in population databases (rs139375860, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 212 of the GRN protein (p.Arg212Trp). -
