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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn252Thrfs*9) 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 (rs587784361, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (PMID: 16783378). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 159778). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

The p.Asn252fs variant in PLA2G6 has been reported in 1 individual, in the compound heterozygous state, with PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration (PMID: 16783378), and has been identified in 0.004% (5/125812) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs771809118). 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#: 159778) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by Invitae, CeGaT Center for Human Genetics Tuebingen, and Genetic Services Laboratory (University of Chicago). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein‚Äôs amino acid sequence beginning at position 252 and leads to a premature termination codon 9 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PLA2G6 gene is an established disease mechanism in PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2 (Richards 2015). -
