Genes affected
PCNT (HGNC:16068): (pericentrin) The protein encoded by this gene binds to calmodulin and is expressed in the centrosome. It is an integral component of the pericentriolar material (PCM). The protein contains a series of coiled-coil domains and a highly conserved PCM targeting motif called the PACT domain near its C-terminus. The protein interacts with the microtubule nucleation component gamma-tubulin and is likely important to normal functioning of the centrosomes, cytoskeleton, and cell-cycle progression. Mutations in this gene cause Seckel syndrome-4 and microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

The PCNT c.7304A>G; p.His2435Arg variant (rs373432697), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 436216). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0085% (24/282728 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The histidine at codon 2435 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. Furthermore, only truncating variants in PCNT have been associated with disease (Rauch 2008, Willems 2010). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely benign.

The PCNT c.7304A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.His2435Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.018% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
