Genes affected
COLQ (HGNC:2226): (collagen like tail subunit of asymmetric acetylcholinesterase) This gene encodes the subunit of a collagen-like molecule associated with acetylcholinesterase in skeletal muscle. Each molecule is composed of three identical subunits. Each subunit contains a proline-rich attachment domain (PRAD) that binds an acetylcholinesterase tetramer to anchor the catalytic subunit of the enzyme to the basal lamina. Mutations in this gene are associated with endplate acetylcholinesterase deficiency. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

This sequence change in COLQ is a frameshift variant that may cause a premature stop codon, p.(Pro361Leufs*65), that is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay and remove <10% of the protein, however, it is a truncation of a functionally important region (removes amino acids 416-433) in a gene where loss of function is an established disease mechanism (PMID: 9689136). The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v2.1 is 0.017% (6/35,406 alleles) in the Latino/Admixed American population, which is consistent with recessive disease. This variant has been detected in at least 15 individuals with congenital myasthenic syndrome. Of those individuals, 10 were homozygous and five were compound heterozygous for the variant and a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant and two of those were confirmed in trans by family testing (PMID: 9689136, 10665486, 18180250, 21952943, 22088788, 22678886, 23371844, 29150079). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.5.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PM3_VeryStrong, PVS1_Strong, PM2_Supporting. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro361Leufs*65) in the COLQ gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 95 amino acid(s) of the COLQ protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs769982050, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with congenital myasthenic syndrome (PMID: 9689136, 23371844, 28464723). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6652). This variant disrupts a region of the COLQ protein in which other variant(s) (p.Cys427*) have been determined to be pathogenic (internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Pro361fs variant in COLQ has been reported in at least 8 individuals (2 co mpound heterozygotes and 6 homozygotes) with clinical features of congenital mya sthenic syndrome (Ohno 1998, Abicht 2012, Arredondo 2014). This variant has been identified in 0.004% (5/126540) of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregati on Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs769982050). In vi tro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Pro361fs variant may imp act protein function (Ohno 1998). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshif t, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 361 and leads to a premature termination codon 65 amino acids downstream. This alteratio n is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, this v ariant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for congenital myasthenic s yndrome in an autosomal recessive manner based upon case studies, low frequency in controls, functional evidence, predicted impact on protein. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PM3, PS3_P (Richards 2015). -

Variant summary: COLQ c.1082delC (p.Pro361LeufsX65) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been associated with Endplate acetylcholinesterase deficiency in HGMD and are classified as pathogenic in ClinVar. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251134 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1082delC has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome (examples: Ohno_1998 and Abicht_2012). Additionally, using in-vitro functional studies Ohno et al (1998) demonstrated that this variant affects protein function. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
