Genes affected

PIEZO2 (HGNC:26270): (piezo type mechanosensitive ion channel component 2) The protein encoded by this gene contains more than thirty transmembrane domains and likely functions as part of mechanically-activated (MA) cation channels. These channels serve to connect mechanical forces to biological signals. The encoded protein quickly adapts MA currents in somatosensory neurons. Defects in this gene are a cause of type 5 distal arthrogryposis. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full-length nature is not known.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Fraction of 0.00256 CDS is truncated, and there are 1 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 18-10671549-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-10671549-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3393840.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
