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 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 274 of the PEX6 protein (p.Pro274Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs61753219, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Zellweger Syndrome Spectrum (PMID: 15542397, 19877282, 24016303, 26387595). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217424). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on PEX6 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PEX6 function (PMID: 26387595, 29220678). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 11, 2019Variant summary: PEX6 c.821C>T (p.Pro274Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251460 control chromosomes. c.821C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome (Steinberg_2004,Ebberink_2010) and Heimler Syndrome (Ratbi_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Ratbi_2015, Falkenberg_2017). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal peroxisomal activity. Four ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
PEX6-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 11, 2024The PEX6 c.821C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro274Leu. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in individuals with peroxisome biogenesis disorder (Table 4, Steinberg et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15542397; Table 2, Ratbi et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26387595; Table 1, Yik et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19105186; Supplemental Table 2, Ebberink et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 19877282). This variant is reported in 0.0079% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
