Genes affected
PIGN (HGNC:8967): (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class N) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This protein is expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum and transfers phosphoethanolamine (EtNP) to the first mannose of the GPI anchor. Two alternatively spliced variants, which encode an identical isoform, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The E61X variant in the PIGN gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as abenign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein functioneither through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The E61X variant was notobserved at a significant frequency in approximately 6100 individuals of European and AfricanAmerican ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret E61X as a pathogenic variant.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu61*) in the PIGN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PIGN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24253414, 27038415). This variant is present in population databases (rs200199765, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with PIGN-related conditions (PMID: 29096607). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 373038). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
