Genes affected

BCS1L (HGNC:1020): (BCS1 homolog, ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex chaperone) This gene encodes a homolog of the S. cerevisiae bcs1 protein which is involved in the assembly of complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The encoded protein does not contain a mitochondrial targeting sequence but experimental studies confirm that it is imported into mitochondria. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial complex III deficiency and the GRACILE syndrome. Several alternatively spliced transcripts encoding two different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-218660400-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-218660400-T-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 56411.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=2}.

This variant is also known as c.-588T>A. This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the BCS1L gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the BCS1L protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with GRACILE syndrome (PMID: 12215968, 22277166). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56411). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -

Variant summary: BCS1L c.-50+155T>A is located in the untranslated mRNA region upstream of the initiation codon. The frequency of this variant in the general population could not be determined as the technology used for large population databases (ExAC, gnomAD, ESP, 1000G) cannot detect variants of this type. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.-50+155T>A has been reported in the literature in hte compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with GRACILE Syndrome (e.g. Vispaa_2002, Lynn_2012). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. This variant is also known as c.-588T>A. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22277166, 12215968). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56411). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
