Genes affected

AR (HGNC:644): (androgen receptor) The androgen receptor gene is more than 90 kb long and codes for a protein that has 3 major functional domains: the N-terminal domain, DNA-binding domain, and androgen-binding domain. The protein functions as a steroid-hormone activated transcription factor. Upon binding the hormone ligand, the receptor dissociates from accessory proteins, translocates into the nucleus, dimerizes, and then stimulates transcription of androgen responsive genes. This gene contains 2 polymorphic trinucleotide repeat segments that encode polyglutamine and polyglycine tracts in the N-terminal transactivation domain of its protein. Expansion of the polyglutamine tract from the normal 9-34 repeats to the pathogenic 38-62 repeats causes spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA, also known as Kennedy's disease). Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Variant summary: AR c.1415_1420dupGCGGCG (p.Gly472_Gly473dup) results in an in-frame duplication that is predicted to duplicate two amino acids into the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.019 in 558277 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 201 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is above the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in AR causing Androgen Resistance Syndrome strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.1415_1420dupGCGGCG has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Androgen Resistance Syndrome (Wu_2018). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29693241). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 434265). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
