This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) variant in GP9 is known for being frequently reported in BSS patients of European ancestry. It has been detected in at least 30 probands with Bernard-Soulier syndrome. At least 16 probands included in this curation have origin in Central or Northern Europe (France, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, Austria, and England). The literature supports the hypothesis of Koskela et al., which suggests that the c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) variant is an ancient founder mutation in this region (PMID:10227459). At least one patient with this variant had aggregation absent for ristocetin and present for all other agonists, which is highly specific for Bernard-Soulier syndrome and with full gene sequencing and del/dup analysis of all BSS genes (PP4_moderate, Department of Haematology and Transfusion Medicine, Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney, NSW, Australia). Additionally, the patient had excessive mucocutaneous bleeding and macrothrombocytopenia which are consistent with Bernard-Soulier syndrome. At least 2 of the probands included in this curation were homozygous for the variant and were confirmed to have the variants in trans (PM3; PMIDs: 8049428, 14510954, 8856096, 10227459, 11297032). The variant has been reported to segregate with Bernard-Soulier syndrome in the proband (meeting PP4) plus 3 (>2) affected family members, all with the homozygous genotype. (PP1_strong; PMID:19404517). The Grp max filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.0008047 (1001/1179870 alleles) in the European (Non-Finnish) population, which is higher than the ClinGen PD VCEP threshold (>0.0007 for GP9), and therefore meets this criterion (BS1), however since this is a known founder variant BS1 will not be applied. The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.721, which is above the ClinGen PD VCEP threshold of >0.644 and predicts a damaging effect on function (PP3). A zebrafish model made by deleting 17bps in exon 2 of gp9 using CRISPR-Cas9 demonstrated thrombocytopenia and abnormal bleeding. The thrombocytopenia phenotype in the zebrafish was rescued using a wild-type copy of human GP9. The human copy of GP9 containing the c.182A>G variant failed to rescue the same phenotype, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMID:34407604)(PS3_Supporting).In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Bernard-Soulier syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen PD VCEP: PM3, PP3, PP4_moderate, PP1_Strong, PS3_Supporting.

Genes affected
GP9 (HGNC:4444): (glycoprotein IX platelet) This gene encodes a small membrane glycoprotein found on the surface of human platelets. It forms a 1-to-1 noncovalent complex with glycoprotein Ib, a platelet surface membrane glycoprotein complex that functions as a receptor for von Willebrand factor. The complete receptor complex includes noncovalent association of the alpha and beta subunits with the protein encoded by this gene and platelet glycoprotein V. Defects in this gene are a cause of Bernard-Soulier syndrome, also known as giant platelet disease. These patients have unusually large platelets and have a clinical bleeding tendency.

The GP9 c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) missense variant has been reported in four studies in which it is found in a total of ten individuals with bleeding abnormalities characteristic of Bernard-Soulier syndrome, including in six in a homozygous state and in four (including three siblings) in a compound heterozygous state (Wright et al. 1993; Clemetson et al. 1994; Sachs et al. 2003; Bragadottir et al. 2015). The variant was also found in a heterozygous state in six unaffected family members. The p.Asn61Ser variant was absent from 208 control alleles and is reported at a frequency of 0.001073 in the non-Finnish European population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the evidence, the p.Asn61Ser variant is classified as pathogenic for Bernard-Soulier syndrome. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

The c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) variant in GP9 is known for being frequently reported in BSS patients of European ancestry. It has been detected in at least 30 probands with Bernard-Soulier syndrome. At least 16 probands included in this curation have origin in Central or Northern Europe (France, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, Austria, and England). The literature supports the hypothesis of Koskela et al., which suggests that the c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) variant is an ancient founder mutation in this region (PMID:10227459). At least one patient with this variant had aggregation absent for ristocetin and present for all other agonists, which is highly specific for Bernard-Soulier syndrome and with full gene sequencing and del/dup analysis of all BSS genes (PP4_moderate, Department of Haematology and Transfusion Medicine, Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney, NSW, Australia). Additionally, the patient had excessive mucocutaneous bleeding and macrothrombocytopenia which are consistent with Bernard-Soulier syndrome. At least 2 of the probands included in this curation were homozygous for the variant and were confirmed to have the variants in trans (PM3; PMIDs: 8049428, 14510954, 8856096, 10227459, 11297032). The variant has been reported to segregate with Bernard-Soulier syndrome in the proband (meeting PP4) plus 3 (>2) affected family members, all with the homozygous genotype. (PP1_strong; PMID:19404517). The Grp max filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.0008047 (1001/1179870 alleles) in the European (Non-Finnish) population, which is higher than the ClinGen PD VCEP threshold (>0.0007 for GP9), and therefore meets this criterion (BS1), however since this is a known founder variant BS1 will not be applied. The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.721, which is above the ClinGen PD VCEP threshold of >0.644 and predicts a damaging effect on function (PP3). A zebrafish model made by deleting 17bps in exon 2 of gp9 using CRISPR-Cas9 demonstrated thrombocytopenia and abnormal bleeding. The thrombocytopenia phenotype in the zebrafish was rescued using a wild-type copy of human GP9. The human copy of GP9 containing the c.182A>G variant failed to rescue the same phenotype, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMID:34407604)(PS3_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Bernard-Soulier syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen PD VCEP: PM3, PP3, PP4_moderate, PP1_Strong, PS3_Supporting.

Variant summary: GP9 c.182A>G (p.Asn61Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00048 in 248302 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in GP9 causing Bernard Soulier Syndrome (0.00048 vs 0.00074), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.182A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Bernard Soulier Syndrome (e.g. Sachs_2003). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 14510954). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13529). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; In silico analysis suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25370924, 14510954, 8049428, 31064749, 8481514, 27934591, 28131619, 28765788, 28960434, 30431218, 31980526, 32581362, 31589614, 33553065, 24934643) -

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 61 of the GP9 protein (p.Asn61Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs5030764, gnomAD 0.09%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individuals with Bernard-Soulier syndrome (PMID: 8481514, 14510954, 25370924, 28131619, 28765788). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as Asn45Ser. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13529). 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
