Genes affected
AGPAT2 (HGNC:325): (1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 2) This gene encodes a member of the 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase family. The protein is located within the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and converts lysophosphatidic acid to phosphatidic acid, the second step in de novo phospholipid biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL), or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome, a disease characterized by a near absence of adipose tissue and severe insulin resistance. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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

The variant is reported with the allele frequency of 0.001615% in gnomAD and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar as Pathogenic. The variant affects an invariant splice nucleotide and is expected to cause loss of function. Downstream loss of function variants have been reported to be disease causing. The nucleotide change in AGPAT2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
