Genes affected

LARP7 (HGNC:24912): (La ribonucleoprotein 7, transcriptional regulator) This gene encodes a protein which is found in the 7SK snRNP (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein). This snRNP complex inhibits a cyclin-dependent kinase, positive transcription elongation factor b, which is required for paused RNA polymerase II at a promoter to begin transcription elongation. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

MIR302CHG (HGNC:41070): (miR-302/367 cluster host gene)

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 4-112647384-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-112647384-A-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 402189.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

The homozygous p.Lys285Ter variant in LARP7 was identified by our study in two siblings with Alazami syndrome. The p.Lys285Ter variant in LARP7 has been previously reported in two unrelated individuals with Alazami syndrome (PMID: 26539891, PMID: 30426380) and segregated with disease in 2 affected relatives in one family (PMID: 30426380). These two previously reported unrelated individuals were homozygotes, which increases the likelihood that the p.Lys285Ter variant is pathogenic. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 402189) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by the Lupski Lab (Baylor-Hopkins CMG, Baylor College of Medicine). This variant was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 285, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the LARP7 gene is strongly associated to autosomal recessive Alazami syndrome. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive Alazami syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1_Strong, PM2_Supporting, PM3 (Richards 2015).
