Genetic Variant NHLRC1:p.Arg140Gly (chr6-18122189-G-C) – ACMG Classification: Uncertain_significance (5 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM1PM2PP2

The NM_198586.3(NHLRC1):c.418C>G(p.Arg140Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,272 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R140C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

NHLRC1 (HGNC:21576): (NHL repeat containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a single subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase. Laforin is polyubiquitinated by the encoded protein. Defects in this intronless gene lead to an accumulation of laforin and onset of Lafora disease, also known as progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 2 (EPM2).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_198586.3

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 13 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.49521 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.085446 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Lafora disease.
