Genes affected

CUL4B (HGNC:2555): (cullin 4B) This gene is a member of the cullin family. The encoded protein forms a complex that functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase and catalyzes the polyubiquitination of specific protein substrates in the cell. The protein interacts with a ring finger protein, and is required for the proteolysis of several regulators of DNA replication including chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1 and cyclin E. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04092262 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.9, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: catGTaggt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant X-120538658-AC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-120538658-AC-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 521673.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
