ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_001031710.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the KLHL7 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 12 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.907 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 5.0301 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to retinitis pigmentosa 42, PERCHING syndrome, retinitis pigmentosa, cold-induced sweating syndrome.
• PP5: Variant 7-23125152-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-23125152-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 438050.

Collection Method: curation

The p.Val141Ala variant in KLHL7 was identified in an individual with Retinitis pigmentosa, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Pierce lab (https://oculargenomics.meei.harvard.edu/labs/pierce-lab/lab-members/). Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PM2, PP2. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. If you have any questions about the classification please reach out to the Pierce Lab. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 141 of the KLHL7 protein (p.Val141Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant KLHL7-related conditions (PMID: 27160483, 34906470, 37510321; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438050). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
