Genetic Variant GHR:p.Leu3Leu (chr5-42565883-C-G) – ACMG Classification: Likely_benign (-1 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 2P and 3B. PM2BP4_ModerateBP7

The NM_000163.5(GHR):c.9C>G(p.Leu3Leu) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000186 in 1,613,894 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L3L) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

GHR (HGNC:4263): (growth hormone receptor) This gene encodes a member of the type I cytokine receptor family, which is a transmembrane receptor for growth hormone. Binding of growth hormone to the receptor leads to receptor dimerization and the activation of an intra- and intercellular signal transduction pathway leading to growth. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Laron syndrome, also known as the growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a disorder characterized by short stature. In humans and rabbits, but not rodents, growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) is generated by proteolytic cleavage of the extracellular ligand-binding domain from the mature growth hormone receptor protein. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
