Genes affected
PRNP (HGNC:9449): (prion protein (Kanno blood group)) The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that tends to aggregate into rod-like structures. The encoded protein contains a highly unstable region of five tandem octapeptide repeats. This gene is found on chromosome 20, approximately 20 kbp upstream of a gene which encodes a biochemically and structurally similar protein to the one encoded by this gene. Mutations in the repeat region as well as elsewhere in this gene have been associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gerstmann-Straussler disease, Huntington disease-like 1, and kuru. An overlapping open reading frame has been found for this gene that encodes a smaller, structurally unrelated protein, AltPrp. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 2 uncertain in NM_000311.5
PP5
Variant 20-4699758-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-4699758-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic/Pathogenic,_low_penetrance. ClinVar VariationId is 13405.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.29018027). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000903 (132/1461882) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00234 (93/39700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00196. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 73 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 8 AD gene.
