Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1 PM2

The NM_001395002.1(MAP4K4):​c.106dup​(p.Tyr36LeufsTer6) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

MAP4K4 (HGNC:6866): (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. This kinase has been shown to specifically activate MAPK8/JNK. The activation of MAPK8 by this kinase is found to be inhibited by the dominant-negative mutants of MAP3K7/TAK1, MAP2K4/MKK4, and MAP2K7/MKK7, which suggests that this kinase may function through the MAP3K7-MAP2K4-MAP2K7 kinase cascade, and mediate the TNF-alpha signaling pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Mar 24, 2023

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene or region of a gene for which loss of function is not a well-established mechanism of disease; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Variants in candidate genes are classified as variants of uncertain significance in accordance with ACMG guidelines (Richards et al., 2015) -
