Genes affected
PLA2G6 (HGNC:9039): (phospholipase A2 group VI) The protein encoded by this gene is an A2 phospholipase, a class of enzyme that catalyzes the release of fatty acids from phospholipids. The encoded protein may play a role in phospholipid remodelling, arachidonic acid release, leukotriene and prostaglandin synthesis, fas-mediated apoptosis, and transmembrane ion flux in glucose-stimulated B-cells. Several transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been described, but the full-length nature of only three of them have been determined to date. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg37*) in the PLA2G6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PLA2G6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16783378, 18570303, 18799783, 22213678). This variant is present in population databases (rs200075782, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (PMID: 16783378, 19138334, 20584031, 22934738). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30370). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration Pathogenic:1
Jan 24, 2023
Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

The p.Arg37Ter variant in PLA2G6 has been reported in at least 6 individuals with PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration (PMID: 16783378, 20584031, 28549837, 19138334) and has been identified in 0.007% (8/113434) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs200075782). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 30370) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple laboratories. Of the 6 affected individuals, 2 of those were homozygotes, which increases the likelihood that the p.Gln700Ter variant is pathogenic (PMID: 16783378). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 37, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PLA2G6 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -
