Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5
The NM_001371623.1(TCOF1):c.108+1G>A variant causes a splice donor, intron change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (no stars).
TCOF1 (HGNC:11654): (treacle ribosome biogenesis factor 1) This gene encodes a nucleolar protein with a LIS1 homology domain. The protein is involved in ribosomal DNA gene transcription through its interaction with upstream binding factor (UBF). Mutations in this gene have been associated with Treacher Collins syndrome, a disorder which includes abnormal craniofacial development. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.
PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 5-150357855-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-150357855-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3061355.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
The TCOF1 c.108+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in TCOF1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
