Genes affected

PLK4 (HGNC:11397): (polo like kinase 4) This gene encodes a member of the polo family of serine/threonine protein kinases. The protein localizes to centrioles, complex microtubule-based structures found in centrosomes, and regulates centriole duplication during the cell cycle. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 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 12 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 4-127881860-AG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-127881860-AG-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1458419.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1458419). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PLK4-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly21Aspfs*22) in the PLK4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PLK4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25320347, 30842647). -
