Genes affected

GFM1 (HGNC:13780): (G elongation factor mitochondrial 1) Eukaryotes contain two protein translational systems, one in the cytoplasm and one in the mitochondria. Mitochondrial translation is crucial for maintaining mitochondrial function and mutations in this system lead to a breakdown in the respiratory chain-oxidative phosphorylation system and to impaired maintenance of mitochondrial DNA. This gene encodes one of the mitochondrial translation elongation factors. Its role in the regulation of normal mitochondrial function and in different disease states attributed to mitochondrial dysfunction is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LXN (HGNC:13347): (latexin) This gene encodes the only known protein inhibitor of zinc-dependent metallocarboxypeptidases. The encoded protein, latexin, downregulates the population size of hematopoietic stem cells. This protein is found to be downregulated in cancer cells because of promoter hypermethylation.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-158646175-AAG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-158646175-AAG-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 936188.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 936188). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GFM1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp83Trpfs*34) in the GFM1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GFM1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16632485, 17160893). -
