Genes affected

EIF2AK3 (HGNC:3255): (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3) The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2, leading to its inactivation, and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. This protein is thought to modulate mitochondrial function. It is a type I membrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it is induced by ER stress caused by malfolded proteins. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00611 (926/151544) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00819 (555/67790). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00762. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 486 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

BS2

High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 5 AR gene
