Genes affected

WNT3 (HGNC:12782): (Wnt family member 3) The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genes which encode secreted signaling proteins. These proteins have been implicated in oncogenesis and in several developmental processes, including regulation of cell fate and patterning during embryogenesis. This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. It encodes a protein which shows 98% amino acid identity to mouse Wnt3 protein, and 84% to human WNT3A protein, another WNT gene product. The mouse studies show the requirement of Wnt3 in primary axis formation in the mouse. Studies of the gene expression suggest that this gene may play a key role in some cases of human breast, rectal, lung, and gastric cancer through activation of the WNT-beta-catenin-TCF signaling pathway. This gene is clustered with WNT15, another family member, in the chromosome 17q21 region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), WNT3. . Gene score misZ 3.1793 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 3.9225 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with tetraamelia-multiple malformations syndrome, tetraamelia syndrome 1.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.957

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. 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: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with WNT3-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs780318283, ExAC 0.001%). This sequence change replaces glycine with aspartic acid at codon 291 of the WNT3 protein (p.Gly291Asp). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and aspartic acid. -
