Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBS1_Supporting

The NM_017739.4(POMGNT1):​c.269G>A​(p.Arg90His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000496 in 1,614,230 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R90C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
POMGNT1 (HGNC:19139): (protein O-linked mannose N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (beta 1,2-)) This gene encodes a type II transmembrane protein that resides in the Golgi apparatus. It participates in O-mannosyl glycosylation and is specific for alpha linked terminal mannose. Mutations in this gene may be associated with muscle-eye-brain disease and several congenital muscular dystrophies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.04769653).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000335 (49/1461864) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00108 (36/33480). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000798. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 26 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.269G>A (p.R90H) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 3) of the POMGNT1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 269, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 90 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
