Genes affected
EIF2AK3 (HGNC:3255): (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3) The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2, leading to its inactivation, and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. This protein is thought to modulate mitochondrial function. It is a type I membrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it is induced by ER stress caused by malfolded proteins. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000532 (81/152338) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.00192 (80/41578). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00158. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 37 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Submissions by phenotype

Wolcott-Rallison dysplasia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This 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. -
