Genes affected

PABPN1 (HGNC:8565): (poly(A) binding protein nuclear 1) This gene encodes an abundant nuclear protein that binds with high affinity to nascent poly(A) tails. The protein is required for progressive and efficient polymerization of poly(A) tails at the 3' ends of eukaryotic transcripts and controls the size of the poly(A) tail to about 250 nt. At steady-state, this protein is localized in the nucleus whereas a different poly(A) binding protein is localized in the cytoplasm. This gene contains a GCG trinucleotide repeat at the 5' end of the coding region, and expansion of this repeat from the normal 6 copies to 8-13 copies leads to autosomal dominant oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) disease. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 19 and X. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring upstream BCL2-like 2 (BCL2L2) gene.

BCL2L2-PABPN1 (HGNC:42959): (BCL2L2-PABPN1 readthrough) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring BCL2L2 (BCL2-like 2) and PABPN1 (poly(A) binding protein, nuclear 1) genes on chromosome 14. The read-through transcript encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

The PABPN1 c.35G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly12Ala. This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) who had family histories that included additional affected individuals, although none were available for confirmatory DNA testing (Robinson et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16648376; Robinson et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21742497; Nishii et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34225694). This variant results in the substitution of a glycine to an alanine at codon 12, producing a run of 13 alanine amino acids, which mimic the effect of the common expansion mutation (Robinson et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16648376). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
