Variant summary: VRK1 c.7C>T (p.Arg3Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250888 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.7C>T has been reported in the literature in settings of WES in individuals affected with neurological disorders including sensory-motor neuropathy, without strong evidence for causality (e.g. O Brien_2022, Karthika Ajit_2023). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.7C>T in individuals affected with Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia, Type 1A and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34906498, https://doi.org/10.1111/ncn3.12694).ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1044639). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 1A Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 3 of the VRK1 protein (p.Arg3Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs747692654, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VRK1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1044639). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
