Genes affected

PIGN (HGNC:8967): (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class N) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This protein is expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum and transfers phosphoethanolamine (EtNP) to the first mannose of the GPI anchor. Two alternatively spliced variants, which encode an identical isoform, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Frameshift in the end of transcript resulting in stoplost. Downstream stopcodon found after 928 codons.

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the PIGN gene (p.Gly924Alafs*26). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 8 amino acid(s) of the PIGN protein and extend the protein by 17 additional amino acid residues. 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. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1509123). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PIGN-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
