• NHLRC1 p.Arg76Arg

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_198586.3(NHLRC1):​c.226C>A​(p.Arg76Arg) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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. R76R) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

NHLRC1 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• Lafora disease

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.52).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.95 with no splicing effect.
