Genes affected
PLOD1 (HGNC:9081): (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1) Lysyl hydroxylase is a membrane-bound homodimeric protein localized to the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum. The enzyme (cofactors iron and ascorbate) catalyzes the hydroxylation of lysyl residues in collagen-like peptides. The resultant hydroxylysyl groups are attachment sites for carbohydrates in collagen and thus are critical for the stability of intermolecular crosslinks. Some patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VI have deficiencies in lysyl hydroxylase activity. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Arg46His variant (rs142710681) has not been reported in the medical literature, is not listed in gene-specific variant databases, nor has it been previously identified in our laboratory. It is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) browser with a frequency in Africans of 0.25% (identified in 60 out of 24,034 chromosomes). The arginine at codon 46 is highly conserved considering 12 species up to Fruitfly (Alamut software v2.8.1), and computational analyses suggest this variant has a significant effect on PLOD1 protein structure/function (SIFT: damaging, PolyPhen2: possibly damaging, and Mutation Taster: disease causing). However, based on the available information, the clinical significance of the p.Arg46His variant cannot be determined with certainty.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R46H variant (also known as c.137G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the PLOD1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 137. The arginine at codon 46 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
