Genes affected
PYCR1 (HGNC:9721): (pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1) This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the NAD(P)H-dependent conversion of pyrroline-5-carboxylate to proline. This enzyme may also play a physiologic role in the generation of NADP(+) in some cell types. The protein forms a homopolymer and localizes to the mitochondrion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 119 of the PYCR1 protein (p.Arg119His). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918377, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive cutis laxa (PMID: 19648921, 23963297, 30450527). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13197). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PYCR1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PYCR1 function (PMID: 28194412). This variant disrupts the p.Arg119 amino acid residue in PYCR1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 23963297, 24035636, 25865492, 30450527). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Functional studies using recombinant protein expressed and purified in E.coli showed negligible enzyme activity (Li et al., 2017); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 18348262, 19648921, 30450527, 28194412) -

Variant summary: PYCR1 c.356G>A (p.Arg119His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 246834 control chromosomes. c.356G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cutis Laxa - PYCR1 Related (Reversade_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.355C>T, p.Arg119Cys), supporting the critical relevance of codon 119 to PYCR1 protein function. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Li_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28194412, 19648921). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13197). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
