Genes affected
GHRHR (HGNC:4266): (growth hormone releasing hormone receptor) This gene encodes a receptor for growth hormone-releasing hormone. Binding of this hormone to the receptor leads to synthesis and release of growth hormone. Mutations in this gene have been associated with isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD), also known as Dwarfism of Sindh, a disorder characterized by short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 26, 2023Identified in an individual with isolated growth hormone deficiency in published literature (Cohen et al., 2019); Identified in published literature in both individuals with isolated growth hormone deficiency and in unaffected controls at comparable frequency (Godi et al., 2009); In vitro studies suggest that this variant does not alter the cAMP-mediated transcriptional activity of the GHRHR protein (Cohen et al., 2019); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31231873, 19622623) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 27, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 4 of the GHRHR protein (p.Arg4Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs142361839, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GHRHR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 909041). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The tryptophan amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect GHRHR function (PMID: 31231873). 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. -
Isolated growth hormone deficiency type IB Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
