Genes affected

PEX7 (HGNC:8860): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 7) This gene encodes the cytosolic receptor for the set of peroxisomal matrix enzymes targeted to the organelle by the peroxisome targeting signal 2 (PTS2). Defects in this gene cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs), which are characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. There are at least 14 complementation groups for PBDs, with more than one phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene have been associated with PBD complementation group 11 (PBD-CG11) disorders, rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1 (RCDP1), and Refsum disease (RD).

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

NM_000288.3(PEX7):c.188+1G>C is a canonical splice variant classified as likely pathogenic in the context of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1. c.188+1G>C has been observed in a case with relevant disease (PMID: 12325024). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.188+1G>C has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: AMR 0.01%). In summary, NM_000288.3(PEX7):c.188+1G>C is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: PEX7 c.188+1G>C (also known as IVS2+1G>C) is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. At-least one in-silico prediction tool, Transcript-inferred Pathogenicity score (TraP), predicts a possible pathogenic outcome for this variant. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251450 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.188+1G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 1 (e.g. Braverman_2002). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the PEX7 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in PEX7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12325024, 12522768, 20301447). This variant is present in population databases (rs267608254, gnomAD 0.009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (PMID: 12325024). This variant is also known as IVS2+1G>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188975). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters PEX7 gene expression (PMID: 12325024). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
