Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate PP5_Moderate

The NM_138711.6(PPARG):​c.545G>A​(p.Arg182Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R182W) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

PPARG (HGNC:9236): (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma) This gene encodes a member of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) subfamily of nuclear receptors. PPARs form heterodimers with retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and these heterodimers regulate transcription of various genes. Three subtypes of PPARs are known: PPAR-alpha, PPAR-delta, and PPAR-gamma. The protein encoded by this gene is PPAR-gamma and is a regulator of adipocyte differentiation. Additionally, PPAR-gamma has been implicated in the pathology of numerous diseases including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr3-12405896-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 1341522.
• PP2: Missense variant in the PPARG gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 16 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 5 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.1192 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.0978 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to PPARG-related familial partial lipodystrophy, Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.892
• PP5: Variant 3-12405897-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-12405897-G-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 436398.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
