Genes affected

FTL (HGNC:3999): (ferritin light chain) This gene encodes the light subunit of the ferritin protein. Ferritin is the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rates of iron uptake and release in different tissues. A major function of ferritin is the storage of iron in a soluble and nontoxic state. Defects in this light chain ferritin gene are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases and hyperferritinemia-cataract syndrome. This gene has multiple pseudogenes.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-48965342-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-48965342-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1052512.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.13). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of HHCS (PMID: 12730114, Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1052512). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the FTL gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FTL protein. -
