Holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency Pathogenic:5
- -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val512Cysfs*65) in the HLCS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in HLCS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16134170). This variant is present in population databases (rs767533946, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a mitochondrial disorder (PMID: 24215330). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370850). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This frameshifting variant in exon 9 of 12 introduces a premature stop codon and is therefore predicted to result in loss of normal protein function. This variant has been previously reported as a heterozygous change in two patients with suspected metabolic disease (PMID 24215330, 27604308) and classified in the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic by a clinical laboratory (Variation ID: 370850). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.001% (15/277210) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, the c.1533dup, p.Val512CysfsTer65 variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.1533dupT (p.V512Cfs*65) alteration, located in exon 9 (coding exon 6) of the HLCS gene, consists of a duplication of T at position 1533, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 65 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This alteration has been reported in the heterozygous state along with two other HLCS variants in a patient diagnosed with holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency; however, parental testing to determine the phase of these variants was not available (Reid, 2016). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Previously reported in a patient with a neurometabolic phenotype who was also found to have a second variant in the HLCS gene (Reid et al., 2016); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24215330, 27604308, 33870574) -
