Genes affected

PLP1 (HGNC:9086): (proteolipid protein 1) This gene encodes a transmembrane proteolipid protein that is the predominant component of myelin. The encoded protein may play a role in the compaction, stabilization, and maintenance of myelin sheaths, as well as in oligodendrocyte development and axonal survival. Mutations in this gene cause Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and spastic paraplegia type 2. Alternatively splicing results in multiple transcript variants, including the DM20 splice variant.

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PLP1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the PLP1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PLP1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -

The c.4+4A>C intronic variant results from an A to C substitution 4 nucleotides after coding exon 1 in the PLP1 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is not predicted to have any significant effect on this splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
