Genes affected

PEX26 (HGNC:22965): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 26) This gene belongs to the peroxin-26 gene family. It is probably required for protein import into peroxisomes. It anchors PEX1 and PEX6 to peroxisome membranes, possibly to form heteromeric AAA ATPase complexes required for the import of proteins into peroxisomes. Defects in this gene are the cause of peroxisome biogenesis disorder complementation group 8 (PBD-CG8). PBD refers to a group of peroxisomal disorders arising from a failure of protein import into the peroxisomal membrane or matrix. The PBD group is comprised of four disorders: Zellweger syndrome (ZWS), neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), infantile Refsum disease (IRD), and classical rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 38 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 22-18078403-AG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-18078403-AG-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2921344.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala10Profs*72) in the PEX26 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX26 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12851857, 21031596). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX26-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
