Genes affected

VRK1 (HGNC:12718): (VRK serine/threonine kinase 1) This gene encodes a member of the vaccinia-related kinase (VRK) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. This gene is widely expressed in human tissues and has increased expression in actively dividing cells, such as those in testis, thymus, fetal liver, and carcinomas. Its protein localizes to the nucleus and has been shown to promote the stability and nuclear accumulation of a transcriptionally active p53 molecule and, in vitro, to phosphorylate Thr18 of p53 and reduce p53 ubiquitination. This gene, therefore, may regulate cell proliferation. This protein also phosphorylates histone, casein, and the transcription factors ATF2 (activating transcription factor 2) and c-JUN.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Fraction of 0.995 CDS is truncated, and there are 3 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 14-96833476-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-96833476-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 533538.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1}.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 533538). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VRK1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs780789145, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg3Valfs*2) in the VRK1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in VRK1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19646678, 24126608, 27281532). -
