Genes affected

YWHAZ (HGNC:12855): (tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein zeta) This gene product belongs to the 14-3-3 family of proteins which mediate signal transduction by binding to phosphoserine-containing proteins. This highly conserved protein family is found in both plants and mammals, and this protein is 99% identical to the mouse, rat and sheep orthologs. The encoded protein interacts with IRS1 protein, suggesting a role in regulating insulin sensitivity. Several transcript variants that differ in the 5' UTR but that encode the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Fraction of 0.118 CDS is truncated, and there are 3 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation as the last 28 amino acids are replaced with 2 different amino acids, although loss-of-function variants have not been reported downstream of this position in the protein; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Variants in candidate genes are classified as variants of uncertain significance in accordance with ACMG guidelines (Richards et al., 2015) -
