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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.023373157).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000597 (91/152306) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.002 (83/41584). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00165. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 48 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 592 of the PLK4 protein (p.Ser592Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs141081905, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PLK4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436340). 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. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
