Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBS1_Supporting
The NM_032806.6(POMGNT2):c.71G>A(p.Arg24Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000436 in 1,608,896 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R24W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:3
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
This observation is not an independent occurrence and has been identified in the same individual by RCIGM, the other laboratory participating in the GEMINI study. -
POMGNT2: PM2, BP4 -
not specified Uncertain:1
- -
POMGNT2-related disorder Uncertain:1
The POMGNT2 c.71G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg24Gln. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an acutely ill infant (eTable 2 in Maron et al 2023. PubMed ID: 37432431). This variant is reported in 0.071% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The c.71G>A (p.R24Q) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the POMGNT2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 71, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 24 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type a, 8 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 24 of the POMGNT2 protein (p.Arg24Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs139245562, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with POMGNT2-related conditions (PMID: 37432431). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436370). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POMGNT2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
