Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP5_Moderate

The ENST00000521575.1(C17orf107):​c.-295_-277dupGTGGCGCAGCCGCGGGGAC variant causes a 5 prime UTR change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★).

Genes affected

C17orf107 (HGNC:37238): (chromosome 17 open reading frame 107)

CHRNE (HGNC:1966): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic epsilon subunit) Acetylcholine receptors at mature mammalian neuromuscular junctions are pentameric protein complexes composed of four subunits in the ratio of two alpha subunits to one beta, one epsilon, and one delta subunit. The acetylcholine receptor changes subunit composition shortly after birth when the epsilon subunit replaces the gamma subunit seen in embryonic receptors. Mutations in the epsilon subunit are associated with congenital myasthenic syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

This variant seems to be a novel variant, as it has not been previously reported in population or public databases or in the literature. However, splice variants, lying downstream of the variant, have been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in the ClinVar database in the context of slow-channel congenital myasthenic syndrome 4a. Loss-of-function variants in the CHRNE are known to be pathogenic [PMID: 22678886] -
