Genetic Variant GDF5:p.Pro436Ser (chr20-35434109-G-A) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (10 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong

The NM_000557.5(GDF5):c.1306C>T(p.Pro436Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,840 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P436T) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

GDF5 (HGNC:4220): (growth differentiation factor 5) This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein regulates the development of numerous tissue and cell types, including cartilage, joints, brown fat, teeth, and the growth of neuronal axons and dendrites. Mutations in this gene are associated with acromesomelic dysplasia, brachydactyly, chondrodysplasia, multiple synostoses syndrome, proximal symphalangism, and susceptibility to osteoarthritis.
