Genes affected
ELP1 (HGNC:5959): (elongator acetyltransferase complex subunit 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a scaffold protein and a regulator for three different kinases involved in proinflammatory signaling. The encoded protein can bind NF-kappa-B-inducing kinase and I-kappa-B kinases through separate domains and assemble them into an active kinase complex. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial dysautonomia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Intronic variant directly or indirectly altering the +5 splice site in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, and splice predictors support a deleterious effect; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 33 of the ELP1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ELP1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs773132143, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ELP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 929245). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: IKBKAP c.3572+5G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: five predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251420 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected maximum for a pathogenic variant in IKBKAP causing Familial Dysautonomia (4.8e-05 vs 0.0018), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3572+5G>A in individuals affected with Familial Dysautonomia and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.3572+5G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 32 in the IKBKAP gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
