Genes affected
UBQLN2 (HGNC:12509): (ubiquilin 2) This gene encodes an ubiquitin-like protein (ubiquilin) that shares high degree of similarity with related products in yeast, rat and frog. Ubiquilins contain a N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain and a C-terminal ubiquitin-associated domain. They physically associate with both proteasomes and ubiquitin ligases; and thus, are thought to functionally link the ubiquitination machinery to the proteasome to affect in vivo protein degradation. This ubiquilin has also been shown to bind the ATPase domain of the Hsp70-like Stch protein. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -10 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.82).
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-1.11 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0000266 (3/112798) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000278 (3/10805). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000752. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 1 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 23. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Submissions by phenotype

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 15 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 12, 2023This sequence change affects codon 23 of the UBQLN2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the UBQLN2 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with UBQLN2-related conditions. 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. -
