Genes affected
PCNT (HGNC:16068): (pericentrin) The protein encoded by this gene binds to calmodulin and is expressed in the centrosome. It is an integral component of the pericentriolar material (PCM). The protein contains a series of coiled-coil domains and a highly conserved PCM targeting motif called the PACT domain near its C-terminus. The protein interacts with the microtubule nucleation component gamma-tubulin and is likely important to normal functioning of the centrosomes, cytoskeleton, and cell-cycle progression. Mutations in this gene cause Seckel syndrome-4 and microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 11, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2973*) in the PCNT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PCNT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18174396, 22821869). This variant is present in population databases (rs587784321, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with PCNT-related conditions (PMID: 21270239). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 159681). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
