Genes affected
PEX7 (HGNC:8860): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 7) This gene encodes the cytosolic receptor for the set of peroxisomal matrix enzymes targeted to the organelle by the peroxisome targeting signal 2 (PTS2). Defects in this gene cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs), which are characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. There are at least 14 complementation groups for PBDs, with more than one phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene have been associated with PBD complementation group 11 (PBD-CG11) disorders, rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1 (RCDP1), and Refsum disease (RD).

Variant summary: PEX7 c.13_19dupTGCGGTG (p.Gly7ValfsX51) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-06 in 124026 control chromosomes. c.13_19dupTGCGGTG has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in at-least one individual affected with Refsum disease (Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 1) and has been subsequently cited by others (example, van den Brink_2003, Jansen_2004, Nanetti_2015). To our knowledge, no variant specific experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported, although the reported compound heterozygous patient had defects not only in phytanic acid alpha-oxidation but also in plasmalogen synthesis and peroxisomal thiolase. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly7Valfs*51) in the PEX7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12325024, 12522768, 20301447). This variant is present in population databases (rs62636519, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Refsum disease (PMID: 12522768). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
