Genes affected

NAGLU (HGNC:7632): (N-acetyl-alpha-glucosaminidase) This gene encodes an enzyme that degrades heparan sulfate by hydrolysis of terminal N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminides. Defects in this gene are the cause of mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB (MPS-IIIB), also known as Sanfilippo syndrome B. This disease is characterized by the lysosomal accumulation and urinary excretion of heparan sulfate. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.06586021 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.5, offset of -36, new splice context is: cagggccgtggaccctccAGggt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-42537397-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-42537397-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 552772.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-III-B Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jun 20, 2020	Variant summary: NAGLU c.384-1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251428 control chromosomes. c.384-1G>A has been reported in the literature in at-least one homozygous individual affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB (Sanfilippo Syndrome B) (example, Pollard_2013). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552772). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB (PMID: 22976768; Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs764134891, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 1 of the NAGLU gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NAGLU are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9832037, 10094189, 16151907). -
