Genes affected
UBQLN2 (HGNC:12509): (ubiquilin 2) This gene encodes an ubiquitin-like protein (ubiquilin) that shares high degree of similarity with related products in yeast, rat and frog. Ubiquilins contain a N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain and a C-terminal ubiquitin-associated domain. They physically associate with both proteasomes and ubiquitin ligases; and thus, are thought to functionally link the ubiquitination machinery to the proteasome to affect in vivo protein degradation. This ubiquilin has also been shown to bind the ATPase domain of the Hsp70-like Stch protein. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0000444 (5/112536) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000464 (5/10769). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000183. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 3 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 23. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
