Genes affected

SMCHD1 (HGNC:29090): (structural maintenance of chromosomes flexible hinge domain containing 1) This gene encodes a protein which contains a hinge region domain found in members of the SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) protein family. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 532808). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SMCHD1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1162*) in the SMCHD1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SMCHD1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23143600). -
