Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 28, 2022 | The c.2459+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 21 of the FIG4 gene This alteration has been detected in the homozygous state and in the compound heterozygous state with other FIG4 alterations in sibling pairs as well as unrelated individuals with Charcot Marie Tooth disease type 4J (CMT4J) (Lenk GM et al. Hum Mutat, 2019 05;40:619-630; Zimmermann M et al. Parkinsonism Relat Disord, 2020 05;74:6-11). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Jun 08, 2023 | Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25614874, 25617005, 24598713, 31589614, 35803560, 32268254, 30740813) - |
FIG4-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Jan 26, 2024 | The FIG4 c.2459+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant was reported in a large cohort of individuals with suspected Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease (Supplementary Table 5, DiVincenzo et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25614874) and was identified in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in individuals with cerebral hypomyelination or parkinsonism (Lenk et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30740813; Zimmermann et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32268254). The functional analysis showed this variant results in the read-through transcript and the truncated protein with retention of partial function ( (Lenk et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30740813). This variant is reported in 0.0040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic for CMT disease. - |
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Nov 24, 2023 | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 21 of the FIG4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in FIG4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23623387, 30740813). This variant is present in population databases (rs747768373, gnomAD 0.004%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of FIG4-related conditions (PMID: 30740813). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 246120). Studies have shown that this variant results in read‚Äêthrough from exon 20 into intron 20, which introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 30740813). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
