Genes affected

LOX (HGNC:6664): (lysyl oxidase) This gene encodes a member of the lysyl oxidase family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate a regulatory propeptide and the mature enzyme. The copper-dependent amine oxidase activity of this enzyme functions in the crosslinking of collagens and elastin, while the propeptide may play a role in tumor suppression. In addition, defects in this gene have been linked with predisposition to thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

SRFBP1 (HGNC:26333): (serum response factor binding protein 1) Enables RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in maturation of SSU-rRNA. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of 90S preribosome. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

The c.1247+1G>C intronic variant results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 6 of the LOX gene. Although alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, this alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the LOX gene. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown, but the resulting transcript is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and is predicted to only impact the last 39 amino acids of the protein. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
