This sequence variant is a deletion of 2 bases (delCT) at coding nucleotides 1039-1040 of the KIF11 gene that results in a premature termition sigl that occurs 8 codons downstream of a frameshift introduced at codon 347. As this change occurs in exon 9 of 22, this variant is predicted to generate a non-functiol allele through the expression of a truncated protein or the loss of KIF11 expression due to nonsense mediated decay. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar) that has been observed in individuals with microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema or intellectual disability (PMID: 22284827, 25996076, 24281367) and familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (PMID: 31299183). This variant is absent from the gnomAD population database (0 of approximately 240,000 alleles). Studies examining the functiol consequence of this variant have not been published, to our knowledge. Given this information, we consider this a pathogenic variant. ACMG Criteria: PM2, PP5, PVS1 -
not provided Pathogenic:2
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29769). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or intellectual disability (PMID: 22284827). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu347Glufs*8) in the KIF11 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in KIF11 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22284827, 24281367). -
