Genes affected

COQ8A (HGNC:16812): (coenzyme Q8A) This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein similar to yeast ABC1, which functions in an electron-transferring membrane protein complex in the respiratory chain. It is not related to the family of ABC transporter proteins. Expression of this gene is induced by the tumor suppressor p53 and in response to DNA damage, and inhibiting its expression partially suppresses p53-induced apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found; however, their full-length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ENSG00000288674 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-226983549-C-CAGT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-226983549-C-CAGT is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 375333.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1, not_provided=1}.

Variant summary: CABC1 (COQ8A) c.1081-1_1082dupGTA is located in a canonical splice-site. The frequency of this variant in the general population could not be determined (not present in gnomAD). c.1081-1_1082dupGTA, reported to create an in-frame stop codon (p.Gln360_Tyr361ins*), has been documented in the literature in individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Ataxia Due To Ubiquinone Deficiency (Mignot_2013, Traschutz_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the COQ8A gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the COQ8A protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 375333). This variant is also known as p.Gln360_Tyr361ins*. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of COQ8A-related conditions (PMID: 24164873). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
