Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PVS1PP5
The NM_153704.6(TMEM67):c.2315_2322+4delTGAGTAATGTAAinsG(p.Met772SerfsTer17) variant causes a frameshift, splice donor, missense, splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
TMEM67 (HGNC:28396): (transmembrane protein 67) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the primary cilium and to the plasma membrane. The gene functions in centriole migration to the apical membrane and formation of the primary cilium. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Meckel syndrome type 3 (MKS3) and Joubert syndrome type 6 (JBTS6). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
