Genes affected

LRPPRC (HGNC:15714): (leucine rich pentatricopeptide repeat containing) This gene encodes a leucine-rich protein that has multiple pentatricopeptide repeats (PPR). The precise role of this protein is unknown but studies suggest it may play a role in cytoskeletal organization, vesicular transport, or in transcriptional regulation of both nuclear and mitochondrial genes. The protein localizes primarily to mitochondria and is predicted to have an N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence. Mutations in this gene are associated with the French-Canadian type of Leigh syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Variant summary: LRPPRC c.3430C>T (p.Arg1144Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251402 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in LRPPRC causing Leigh Syndrome, French-Canadian Type (0.00014 vs 0.0005), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3430C>T has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (phase/co-segregation/zygosity/genotype not clearly specified) in at-least two reports of an individual affected with mild Leigh Syndrome, outside of Quebec (example, Xinyang Han_2017) and in an individual with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who underwent a multigene panel analysis (example, Chung_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Leigh Syndrome, French-Canadian Type. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33658040, 29152527). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 336150). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
