Genes affected

FUCA1 (HGNC:4006): (alpha-L-fucosidase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal enzyme involved in the degradation of fucose-containing glycoproteins and glycolipids. Mutations in this gene are associated with fucosidosis (FUCA1D), which is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease. A pseudogene of this locus is present on chr 2.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-23848684-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-23848684-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 198046.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp375*) in the FUCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FUCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10094192). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FUCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 198046). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
