Genes affected

WASF1 (HGNC:12732): (WASP family member 1) The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP)-family, plays a critical role downstream of Rac, a Rho-family small GTPase, in regulating the actin cytoskeleton required for membrane ruffling. It has been shown to associate with an actin nucleation core Arp2/3 complex while enhancing actin polymerization in vitro. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a disease of the immune system, likely due to defects in regulation of actin cytoskeleton. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 7 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 6-110101636-GT-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-110101636-GT-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3255117.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a likely mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with neurodevelopmental disorder with absent language and variable seizures (MIM#618707). However, dominant negative has not been excluded (PMID: 29961568). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0205 - Variant is predicted to result in a truncated protein (premature termination codon is NOT located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction) with less than 1/3 of the protein sequence affected. (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0600 - Variant results in the loss of the annotated WASP homology 2 domain (PMID: 29961568). (I) 0702 - Other protein truncating variants comparable to the one identified in this case have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. These variants have been reported as pathogenic, and observed in multiple individuals with a neurodevelopmental disorder (ClinVar, PMID: 29961568). (SP) 0807 - This variant has no previous evidence of pathogenicity. (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed by trio analysis). (SP) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
