Genes affected

METTL23 (HGNC:26988): (methyltransferase 23, arginine) The protein encoded by this gene functions as a transcription factor regulator in the transcriptional pathway for human cognition. It is a partner of the alpha subunit of the GA-binding protein transcription factor. Mutations in this gene cause mild autosomal recessive intellectual disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

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 17-76733041-T-TCA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-76733041-T-TCA is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1071733.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Invitae

Oct 27, 2017

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in METTL23 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24501276, 24626631). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with METTL23-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp51Glnfs*19) in the METTL23 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
