Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_001242896.3(DEPDC5):c.1845delG(p.Arg615SerfsTer47) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
DEPDC5 (HGNC:18423): (DEP domain containing 5, GATOR1 subcomplex subunit) This gene encodes a member of the IML1 family of proteins involved in G-protein signaling pathways. The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway regulates cell growth by sensing the availability of nutrients. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the GATOR1 (GAP activity toward Rags) complex which inhibits the amino acid-sensing branch of the mTORC1 pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant familial focal epilepsy with variable foci. A single nucleotide polymorphism in an intron of this gene has been associated with an increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in individuals with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

This sequence change deletes 1 nucleotide from exon 22 of the DEPDC5 mRNA (c.1845delG), causing a frameshift at codon 615. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg615Serfsx47) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in DEPDC5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25599672, 26505888). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
