Genes affected

AURKC (HGNC:11391): (aurora kinase C) This gene encodes a member of the Aurora subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein is a chromosomal passenger protein that forms complexes with Aurora-B and inner centromere proteins and may play a role in organizing microtubules in relation to centrosome/spindle function during mitosis. This gene is overexpressed in several cancer cell lines, suggesting an involvement in oncogenic signal transduction. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met35Alafs*40) in the AURKC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs757923465, ExAC 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with AURKC-related disease. Loss-of-function variants in AURKC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17435757, 19147683, 22888167). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Met35AlafsX40 variant in AURKC has not been previously reported in individ uals with spermatogenic failure, but has been identified in 0.1% (11/10368) of A shkenazi Jewish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This v ariant is predicted to cause a frameshift in some (e.g. NM_001015878.1 and NM_00 1015879.1) but not all of the transcripts produced by the gene. It occurs upstre am of the start codon of an alternate transcript (NM_003160.2) and the two known pathogenic loss of function variants in this gene (p.Tyr248X and p.Leu49TrpfsX2 3) occur downstream of the start codon in all 3 transcripts. Loss of AURKC funct ion is an established disease mechanism in individuals with spermatogenic failur e (Dieterich 2007, Ben Khelifa 2011, Ben Khelifa 2012); however, given uncertain ty around which transcripts are biologically relevant, the p.Met35AlafsX40 varia nt is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: None. -

The AURKC c.94_101dupAGCCCAGC (p.Met35AlafsTer40) variant results in a frameshift, and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change. No publications were found based on this search. Based on the variant frequency, disease prevalence, disease penetrance, and inheritance mode, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease. Due to the potential impact of frameshift variants and the lack of clarifying evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for spermatogenic failure. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
