Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_181882.3(PRX):c.2857C>T(p.Arg953*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000684 in 1,461,894 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R953R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:3
Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 509 amino acid(s) are lost, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22847150, 25326635, 24011642, 11133365, 31589614, 32376792, 36623372) -
The variant creates a premature nonsense codon, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one symptomatic patient, and found in general population data that is consistent with pathogenicity. -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Pathogenic:1

PRX-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The PRX c.2857C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg953*). This variant was reported in individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (homozygous, Castoro et al 2022. PubMed ID: 36623372; unspecified zygosity, Volodarsky et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32376792) as well as in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with Dejerine-Sottas syndrome and in the heterozygous state in her unaffected son (Boerkoel et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11133365). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through the loss of the last 509 amino acids of the Periaxin protein, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream of this variant (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar; Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD)). Nonsense variants in PRX are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4F Pathogenic:1
This variant has been previously reported as disease-causing and was found once in our laboratory homozygous in a 14-year-old female with Charcot Marie Tooth disease. Heterozygotes are expected to be asymptomatic carriers. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg953*) in the PRX gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 509 amino acid(s) of the PRX protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs104894714, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (PMID: 11133365). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4787). This variant disrupts a region of the PRX protein in which other variant(s) (p.R1070*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15197604, 16770524, 22847150). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
