Genes affected

TERF2IP (HGNC:19246): (TERF2 interacting protein) Enables G-rich strand telomeric DNA binding activity and phosphatase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of NIK/NF-kappaB signaling; regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and regulation of protein modification process. Located in chromosome, telomeric region; cytosol; and nuclear body. Part of shelterin complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

KARS1 (HGNC:6215): (lysyl-tRNA synthetase 1) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. Lysyl-tRNA synthetase is a homodimer localized to the cytoplasm which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.51).
• BP6: Variant 16-75647888-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-75647888-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 3227198.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.126 with no splicing effect.

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
