Genes affected

HGD (HGNC:4892): (homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase) This gene encodes the enzyme homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenase. This enzyme is involved in the catabolism of the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine. Mutations in this gene are the cause of the autosomal recessive metabolism disorder alkaptonuria.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in HGD are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12501223, 19862842). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of alkaptonuria (PMID: 12501223, 19862842). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188717). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu4*) in the HGD gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product.
