Genes affected
MLC1 (HGNC:17082): (modulator of VRAC current 1) The function of this gene product is unknown; however, homology to other proteins suggests that it may be an integral membrane transporter. Mutations in this gene have been associated with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts, an autosomal recessive neurological disorder. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 26, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys46Alafs*12) in the MLC1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MLC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11254442, 16470554, 24824219). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (PMID: 19168821). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370785). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
