Genes affected

SKIC2 (HGNC:10898): (SKI2 subunit of superkiller complex) DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of this family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a DEAD box protein, which is a human homologue of yeast SKI2 and may be involved in antiviral activity by blocking translation of poly(A) deficient mRNAs. This gene is located in the class III region of the major histocompatibility complex. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 6-31959215-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-31959215-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2838538.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 1 of the SKIV2L 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 SKIV2L are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22444670). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SKIV2L-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
