Genes affected
ANKRD11 (HGNC:21316): (ankyrin repeat domain containing 11) This locus encodes an ankryin repeat domain-containing protein. The encoded protein inhibits ligand-dependent activation of transcription. Mutations in this gene have been associated with KBG syndrome, which is characterized by macrodontia, distinctive craniofacial features, short stature, skeletal anomalies, global developmental delay, seizures and intellectual disability. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. Related pseudogenes exist on chromosomes 2 and X. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

Pittsburgh Clinical Genomics Laboratory, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide duplication (dupC) in exon 9 of 13 of the ANKRD11 gene and results in an early termination signal 8 codons downstream of the frameshift introduced at Ala2265. This variant is predicted to generate a non-functional allele through either the expression of a truncated protein or a loss of ankyrin repeat domain containing 11 expression due to nonsense mediated decay. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar 521294) that has been observed in many individuals affected by intellectual disability, epileptic dyskinetic encephalopathy, and/or KBG syndrome (PMID: 27605097, 34012832, 36446582, 38317675). This variant is present in 3 of 123718 alleles (0.0024%) in the gnomAD population dataset. Haploinsufficiency in ANKRD11 is a known mechanism of disease (PMID: 29565525). Based upon the evidence, we consider this a pathogenic variant. ACMG Criteria: PM2, PS4, PVS1

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

The ANKRD11 c.6792dup (p.Ala2265ArgfsTer8) variant has been reported as occurring de novo in at least one individual affected with KBG syndrome (Goldenberg A et al., PMID: 27605097). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a germline pathogenic variant by eight submitters. This variant causes a frameshift by duplicating a single nucleotide, leading to a premature termination codon, which is predicted to lead to nonsense mediated decay. Additionally, other variants that introduce premature termination codons in this region have been described in affected individuals and are considered pathogenic (Goldenberg A et al., PMID: 27605097). Based on available information and the ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), this variant is classified as pathogenic.

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

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala2265Argfs*8) in the ANKRD11 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ANKRD11 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21782149, 25125236, 25413698, 25652421). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 521294). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with KBG syndrome (PMID: 27605097). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database.

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). However, the variant quality is low and allele frequency estimates may not be reliable. Predicted Consequence/Location: Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000521294 /PMID: 27605097 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

The c.6792dupC (p.A2265Rfs*8) alteration, located in exon 9 (coding exon 7) of the ANKRD11 gene, consists of a duplication of C at position 6792, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 8 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the CC allele has an overall frequency of 0.002% (3/123718) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.03% (2/6560) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles. The ANKRD11 p.A2265Rfs*8 alteration has been reported as a de novo finding in two unrelated individuals with features of KBG syndrome (Goldenberg, 2016; Ambry internal data). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
