Genes affected

GNRHR (HGNC:4421): (gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor) This gene encodes the receptor for type 1 gonadotropin-releasing hormone. This receptor is a member of the seven-transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. It is expressed on the surface of pituitary gonadotrope cells as well as lymphocytes, breast, ovary, and prostate. Following binding of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, the receptor associates with G-proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Activation of the receptor ultimately causes the release of gonadotropic luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). Defects in this gene are a cause of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. More than 18 transcription initiation sites in the 5' region and multiple polyA signals in the 3' region have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The GNRHR c.416G>A (p.Arg139His) missense variant has been identified in a homozygous state in ten individuals and in a compound heterozygous state in at least 11 individuals with isolated gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) deficiency, and in a heterozygous state in five unaffected family members (Costa et al. 2001; Wolczynski et al. 2003; Laitinen et al. 2012; Gianetti et al. 2012; Hero et al. 2012; Gurbuz et al. 2012; Choi et al. 2015). The p.Arg139His variant was absent from 422 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.00076 in the European (Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Functional studies in COS-7 cells demonstrated normal localization of the mutant protein at the cell surface but complete elimination of GnRH-binding activity and activation of intracellular transduction pathways (Costa et al. 2001; Leanos-Miranda et al. 2002). Based on the evidence, the p.Arg139His variant is classified as pathogenic for isolated GnRH deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 139 of the GNRHR protein (p.Arg139His). This variant is present in population databases (rs104893842, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (PMID: 11397871, 22724017, 25016926, 26207952, 27544332). It is commonly reported in individuals of Brazilian ancestry (PMID: 11397871, 22724017, 25016926, 26207952, 27544332). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16030). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GNRHR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GNRHR function (PMID: 11397871, 12364481). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the GNRHR gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.416G>A , in exon 1 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg139His. The p.Arg139His change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the GNRHR protein that is known to be functional. The p.Arg139His substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). This pathogenic sequence change has previously been described in individuals with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and is commonly reported in individuals of Brazilian ancestry (PMID: 11397871, 22724017, 25016926, 26207952, 27544332). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.055% in the European subpopulation (dbSNP rs104893842). These collective evidences indicate that this sequence change is pathogenic. -
