Genes affected

PAFAH1B1 (HGNC:8574): (platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase 1b regulatory subunit 1) This locus was identified as encoding a gene that when mutated or lost caused the lissencephaly associated with Miller-Dieker lissencephaly syndrome. This gene encodes the non-catalytic alpha subunit of the intracellular Ib isoform of platelet-activating factor acteylhydrolase, a heterotrimeric enzyme that specifically catalyzes the removal of the acetyl group at the SN-2 position of platelet-activating factor (identified as 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glyceryl-3-phosphorylcholine). Two other isoforms of intracellular platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase exist: one composed of multiple subunits, the other, a single subunit. In addition, a single-subunit isoform of this enzyme is found in serum. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 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 112 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-2638310-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-2638310-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 8081.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

not provided Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Dec 02, 2021	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8081). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with lissencephaly (PMID: 14581661, 29671837). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg8*) in the PAFAH1B1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PAFAH1B1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1671808, 11115846, 14581661). -
