Genes affected

ACAN (HGNC:319): (aggrecan) This gene is a member of the aggrecan/versican proteoglycan family. The encoded protein is an integral part of the extracellular matrix in cartilagenous tissue and it withstands compression in cartilage. Mutations in this gene may be involved in skeletal dysplasia and spinal degeneration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been observed in this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 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. There are 12 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 15-88836234-ACT-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-88836234-ACT-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2756616.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ACAN-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu11Glufs*15) in the ACAN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ACAN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16080123, 24762113). -
