Genes affected

USP27X (HGNC:13486): (ubiquitin specific peptidase 27 X-linked) This gene encodes a member of the peptidase protein family. The encoded protein functions as a deubiquitinase that is involved in upregulation of the pro-apoptotic Bim protein. This protein may act as a tumor suppressor by increasing levels of Bim to counteract anti-apoptotic signals in cancer cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked cognitive disability. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

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 exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 5 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant X-49880528-CGATC-AGA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-49880528-CGATC-AGA is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2097077.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of X-linked intellectual disability (Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr74Lysfs*35) in the USP27X gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 365 amino acid(s) of the USP27X protein. -
