Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 3P and 1B. PM2PP2BP4
The NM_006852.6(TLK2):c.174T>G(p.Asn58Lys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000658 in 152,062 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
TLK2 (HGNC:11842): (tousled like kinase 2) This gene encodes a nuclear serine/threonine kinase that was first identified in Arabidopsis. The encoded protein is thought to function in the regulation of chromatin assembly in the S phase of the cell cycle by regulating the levels of a histone H3/H4 chaperone. This protein is associated with double-strand break repair of DNA damage caused by radiation. Pseudogenes of this gene are present on chromosomes 10 and 17. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the TLK2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 18 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 4 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.4909 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.538 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to intellectual disability, autosomal dominant 57.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3443945).
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
