Genes affected

BCS1L (HGNC:1020): (BCS1 homolog, ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex chaperone) This gene encodes a homolog of the S. cerevisiae bcs1 protein which is involved in the assembly of complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The encoded protein does not contain a mitochondrial targeting sequence but experimental studies confirm that it is imported into mitochondria. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial complex III deficiency and the GRACILE syndrome. Several alternatively spliced transcripts encoding two different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.88).

The c.-49-12C>G variant in the BCS1L gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant occurs within a region of the promoter and may alter the splice acceptor site in intron 2. However, in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant may affect splicing, and in the absence of functional mRNA studies, the physiological consequence of this variant cannot be precisely determined. Additional data from control individuals in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project was not available to assess whether c.-49-12C>G may be a common benign variant in the general population. Therefore, we interpret c.-49-12C>G as a variant of uncertain significance. -
