Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 2P and 2B. PM2 BP4_Moderate

The NM_017838.4(NHP2):c.439C>A(p.Gln147Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000226 in 1,461,714 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Q147H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

NHP2 (HGNC:14377): (NHP2 ribonucleoprotein) This gene is a member of the H/ACA snoRNPs (small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins) gene family. snoRNPs are involved in various aspects of rRNA processing and modification and have been classified into two families: C/D and H/ACA. The H/ACA snoRNPs also include the DKC1, NOLA1 and NOLA3 proteins. These four H/ACA snoRNP proteins localize to the dense fibrillar components of nucleoli and to coiled (Cajal) bodies in the nucleus. Both 18S rRNA production and rRNA pseudouridylation are impaired if any one of the four proteins is depleted. The four H/ACA snoRNP proteins are also components of the telomerase complex. This gene encodes a protein related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nhp2p. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

RMND5B (HGNC:26181): (required for meiotic nuclear division 5 homolog B) Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to contribute to ubiquitin-protein transferase activity. Predicted to be involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Located in cytosol.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.07352877).

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 147 of the NHP2 protein (p.Gln147Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs779452625, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NHP2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1374273). 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 tolerated. 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. -
