Genes affected

HERC1 (HGNC:4867): (HECT and RLD domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase family member 1) This gen encodes a member of the HERC protein family. This protein stimulates guanine nucleotide exchange on ARF1 and Rab proteins. This protein may be involved in membrane transport processes. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.020910462 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.7, offset of 4, new splice context is: taaGTaagc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

The HERC1 c.14400+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. A limited number of loss-of-function variants in this gene have been reported in association with autosomal recessive disease to date (Human Gene Mutation Database; https://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk/ac/index.php). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
