Genes affected

RAB3GAP1 (HGNC:17063): (RAB3 GTPase activating protein catalytic subunit 1) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of a Rab GTPase activating protein. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with a non-catalytic subunit to specifically regulate the activity of members of the Rab3 subfamily of small G proteins. This protein mediates the hydrolysis of GTP bound Rab3 to the GDP bound form. Mutations in this gene are associated with Warburg micro syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.7, offset of -5, new splice context is: acaGTgagc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-135052326-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-135052326-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2627170.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: RAB3GAP1 c.18+1G>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: 4/4 predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site, and 2/2 predict the variant strengthens an existing cryptic 5' donor site located 5nt upstream in exon 1. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251476 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.18+1G>C in individuals affected with RAB3GAP1-Related Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 1 of the RAB3GAP1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in RAB3GAP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23420520). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RAB3GAP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2627170). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
