Variant summary: PROKR2 c.58delC (p.His20MetfsX24) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0001 in 251478 control chromosomes. This frequency does not allow conclusions about variant significance. c.58delC has been reported in the literature as a heterozygous genotype in individuals from a reportedly Kallman syndrome cohort (example, Sarfati_2013), idiopathic central hypogonadism (example, Libri_2014), congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (example, Abbara_2021), Obesity (example, Libri_2014) and as a compound heterozygous genotype in at-least two individuals affected with hypogonadism and anosmia whose carrier mother reported as having only anosmia (example, Dode_2006). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (VUS, n=3, Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic, n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

PVS1, PM2 It results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein. Loss-of-function variants in PROKR2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17054399). -
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as a Likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative and loss of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 3 with or without anosmia (MONDO:0009482) (PMIDs: 18826963, 29161432). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Heterozygous, compound heterozygous and homozygous variants have been reported several times in patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 3 with or without anosmia (MONDO:0009482). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (OMIM, PMID: 18682503). (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.01 (33 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0710 - Another NMD-predicted variant comparable to the one identified in this case has inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. An individual with normosmic isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism was heterozygous for an NMD-predicted variant in the PROKR2 gene and also heterozygous for p.(Gln106Arg) in the GNRHR gene (PMID: 24276467). (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. It has been reported in ClinVar, four times as pathogenic/likely pathogenic and three times as VUS by clinical testing laboratories. It has been reported in DECIPHER as uncertain significance in a heterozygous individual with hypospadias. It has also been reported as heterozygous in three affected individuals (PMIDs: 23643382, 24276467), as compound heterozygous in two affected siblings (PMIDs: 17054399, 20022991), and in at least one affected individual with unknown zygosity (PMID: 23533228). In addition, the variant has been reported as heterozygous in unaffected individuals (PMID: 31589614). (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His20Metfs*24) in the PROKR2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PROKR2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17054399, 18682503). This variant is present in population databases (rs587777834, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Kallmann Syndrome (PMID: 17054399, 23643382, 24276467). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3452). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PROKR2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The PROKR2 c.58delC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.His20Metfs*24). This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in several unrelated patients with Kallmann syndrome and normosmic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (Dodé et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 17054399; referred to as p.Asp19fs in Miraoui et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23643382, Table S3, patient 105; Libri et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24276467). This variant has also been reported to arise de novo in a cohort of patients who performed clinical diagnostic exome sequencing (Powis et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29778231). Of note, this variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state with a PROKR2 missense variant (c.969G>A, p.Met323Ile) in one family with Kallmann syndrome; however, the parent carrying the p.Met323Ile variant was reportedly unaffected (Family B, Dodé et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 17054399). Based on these observations, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
