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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 26, 2023The p.R94W variant (also known as c.280C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TMEM127 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 280. The arginine at codon 94 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in individuals with paragangliomas and/or pheochromocytomas (Yao L, et al. JAMA 2010 Dec; 304(23):2611-9; Yonamine M et al. Cancers (Basel), 2021 Aug;13:). A subcellular localization assay performed by Yao, et al. demonstrated aberrant distribution of the mutant protein in the cytoplasm rather than the plasma membrane as observed in wild type protein. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 22, 2022In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate protein mislocalization (Yao et al., 2010); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21156949, 33051659, 34439168) -
Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 94 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Arg94Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908824, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pheochromocytoma (PMID: 21156949). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126967). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TMEM127 function (PMID: 21156949). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -
