Genes affected

MFSD8 (HGNC:28486): (major facilitator superfamily domain containing 8) This gene encodes a ubiquitous integral membrane protein that contains a transporter domain and a major facilitator superfamily (MFS) domain. Other members of the major facilitator superfamily transport small solutes through chemiosmotic ion gradients. The substrate transported by this protein is unknown. The protein likely localizes to lysosomal membranes. Mutations in this gene are correlated with a variant form of late infantile-onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (vLINCL).

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 97 of the MFSD8 protein (p.Trp97Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs796052749, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MFSD8-related conditions (PMID: 28794409). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206169). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MFSD8 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -

p.Trp97Cys (W97C) TGG>TGC: c.291 G>C in exon 5 of the MFSD8 gene (NM_152778.2). The W97C variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. It was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The W97C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is highly across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, other missense mutations in nearby residues have not been reported. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant The variant is found in MFSD8 panel(s). -
