Genes affected

KIF4A (HGNC:13339): (kinesin family member 4A) This gene encodes a member of the kinesin 4 subfamily of kinesin related proteins. The encoded protein is an ATP dependent microtubule-based motor protein that is involved in the intracellular transport of membranous organelles. This protein also associates with condensed chromosome arms and may be involved in maintaining chromosome integrity during mitosis. This protein may also be involved in the organization of the central spindle prior to cytokinesis. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

The KIF4A c.517-5A>G variant occurs in a splice region and results in the substitution of an adenine at nucleotide position c.517-5 with a guanine. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the peer-reviewed literature. This variant is not found in version 2.1.1 or 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. The c.517-5A>G variant is predicted to result in a splice acceptor gain based on the SpliceAI splicing prediction algorithm (PMID: 30661751). Based on the available evidence, the c.517-5A>G variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance for KIF4A-related intellectual developmental disorder. -
