Genes affected

TMEM127 (HGNC:26038): (transmembrane protein 127) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with four predicted transmembrane domains. The protein is associated with a subpopulation of vesicular organelles corresponding to early endosomal structures, with the Golgi, and with lysosomes, and may participate in protein trafficking between these structures. Mutations in this gene and several other genes cause pheochromocytomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a chain Transmembrane protein 127 (size 237) in uniprot entity TM127_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 2 benign (75%) in NM_017849.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.917

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.F173L variant (also known as c.519C>A), located in coding exon 3 of the TMEM127 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 519. The phenylalanine at codon 173 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 173 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Phe173Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM127-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 463851). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
