Genes affected

PRX (HGNC:13797): (periaxin) This gene encodes a protein involved in peripheral nerve myelin upkeep. The encoded protein contains 2 PDZ domains which were named after PSD95 (post synaptic density protein), DlgA (Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor), and ZO1 (a mammalian tight junction protein). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene which encode different protein isoforms and which are targeted differently in the Schwann cell. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuoropathy, type 4F and Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the PRX gene (p.Ala1447Serfs*40). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 15 amino acids of the PRX protein and extend the protein by an additional 24 amino acids. This variant is present in population databases (rs778270475, ExAC 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PRX-related conditions. 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. -
