Genes affected

SMPD4 (HGNC:32949): (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 4) The protein encoded by this gene is a sphingomyelinase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of membrane sphingomyelin to form phosphorylcholine and ceramide. This gene is activated by DNA damage, cellular stress, and tumor necrosis factor, but it is downregulated by wild-type p53. The encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi network. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

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 0.522 CDS is truncated, and there are 0 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3A. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with neurodevelopmental disorder with microcephaly, arthrogryposis, and structural brain anomalies (MIM#618622) (PMID: 31495489). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0208 - Variant is predicted to result in an elongated protein. (SP) 0252 - This variant is homozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0705 - No comparable elongation variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0807 - This variant has no previous evidence of pathogenicity. (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1101 - Very strong and specific phenotype match for this individual. (SP) 1209 - This variant has been shown to be both maternally and paternally inherited (biallelic) (LABID). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
