Genes affected
PEX6 (HGNC:8859): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 6) This gene encodes a member of the AAA (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) family of ATPases. This member is a predominantly cytoplasmic protein, which plays a direct role in peroxisomal protein import and is required for PTS1 (peroxisomal targeting signal 1, a C-terminal tripeptide of the sequence ser-lys-leu) receptor activity. Mutations in this gene cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders of complementation group 4 and complementation group 6. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 27, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 972 of the PEX6 protein (p.Arg972Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs761395988, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX6-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
