Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1PM2
The NM_018249.6(CDK5RAP2):c.4604+1G>A variant causes a splice donor, intron change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,458,786 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.
CDK5RAP2 (HGNC:18672): (CDK5 regulatory subunit associated protein 2) This gene encodes a regulator of CDK5 (cyclin-dependent kinase 5) activity. The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the centrosome and Golgi complex, interacts with CDK5R1 and pericentrin (PCNT), plays a role in centriole engagement and microtubule nucleation, and has been linked to primary microcephaly and Alzheimer's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]
Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.
PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
