Genes affected
TMEM127 (HGNC:26038): (transmembrane protein 127) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with four predicted transmembrane domains. The protein is associated with a subpopulation of vesicular organelles corresponding to early endosomal structures, with the Golgi, and with lysosomes, and may participate in protein trafficking between these structures. Mutations in this gene and several other genes cause pheochromocytomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2022]

TMEM127-related disorder Uncertain:1
Feb 21, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The TMEM127 c.121A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile41Val. This variant has been reported in an healthy control from a cancer study (Burnichon et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 20923864, referred to as c.121A>G; p.Ile41Val). This variant is reported in 0.018% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar ranging from uncertain to likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/480774). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:1
Jan 30, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 41 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Ile41Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs760633411, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM127-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480774). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Feb 19, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
