Genes affected

PEX7 (HGNC:8860): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 7) This gene encodes the cytosolic receptor for the set of peroxisomal matrix enzymes targeted to the organelle by the peroxisome targeting signal 2 (PTS2). Defects in this gene cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs), which are characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. There are at least 14 complementation groups for PBDs, with more than one phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene have been associated with PBD complementation group 11 (PBD-CG11) disorders, rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1 (RCDP1), and Refsum disease (RD).

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 39 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 6-136822676-TG-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-136822676-TG-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2703133.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys5Alafs*45) in the PEX7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12325024, 12522768, 20301447). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX7-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
