Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points: 2P and 7B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP6_Moderate BP7

The NM_032237.5(POMK):c.33C>A(p.Gly11=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G11G) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

POMK (HGNC:26267): (protein O-mannose kinase) This gene encodes a protein that may be involved in the presentation of the laminin-binding O-linked carbohydrate chain of alpha-dystroglycan (a-DG), which forms transmembrane linkages between the extracellular matrix and the exoskeleton. Some pathogens use this O-linked carbohydrate unit for host entry. Loss of function compound heterozygous mutations in this gene were found in a human patient affected by the Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) phenotype. Mice lacking this gene contain misplaced neurons (heterotopia) in some regions of the brain, possibly from defects in neuronal migration. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
• BP6: Variant 8-43103581-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr8-43103581-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 1618648.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-1.84 with no splicing effect.
