Genes affected

PPP3CA (HGNC:9314): (protein phosphatase 3 catalytic subunit alpha) Enables several functions, including ATPase binding activity; calmodulin binding activity; and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including calcineurin-NFAT signaling cascade; peptidyl-serine dephosphorylation; and response to calcium ion. Located in several cellular components, including cytosol; dendritic spine; and nucleoplasm. Part of calcineurin complex. Colocalizes with cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 91. Biomarker of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and schizophrenia. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 15 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the PPP3CA gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 14 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 5 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.6261 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.4954 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to epileptic encephalopathy, infantile or early childhood, 1, arthrogryposis, cleft palate, craniosynostosis, and impaired intellectual development, autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability, undetermined early-onset epileptic encephalopathy.
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 4-101032267-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-101032267-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 441273.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tools predict the variant to alter splicing and produce an abnormal transcript (SpliceAI: 0.61). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with PPP3CA related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000441273 / PMID: 28942967). The variant has been previously reported as de novo in a similarly affected individual (PMID: 28942967). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Ala447Ser) has been reported to be associated with PPP3CA related disorder (PMID: 32238909). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 447 of the PPP3CA protein (p.Ala447Thr). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 12, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) (PMID: 28942967). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 441273). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
