Genes affected
UBE3A (HGNC:12496): (ubiquitin protein ligase E3A) This gene encodes an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, part of the ubiquitin protein degradation system. This imprinted gene is maternally expressed in brain and biallelically expressed in other tissues. Maternally inherited deletion of this gene causes Angelman Syndrome, characterized by severe motor and intellectual retardation, ataxia, hypotonia, epilepsy, absence of speech, and characteristic facies. The protein also interacts with the E6 protein of human papillomavirus types 16 and 18, resulting in ubiquitination and proteolysis of tumor protein p53. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding three isoforms with different N-termini. Additional transcript variants have been described, but their full length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
SNHG14 (HGNC:37462): (small nucleolar RNA host gene 14) This gene is located within the Prader-Willi critical region and produces a long, spliced paternally-imprinted RNA that initiates within a common upstream promoter region shared by the SNRPN (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N) and SNURF genes. This transcript serves as a host RNA for the small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 115 and 116 clusters. This RNA extends in antisense into the region of the ubiquitin protein ligase E3A gene (UBE3A), and is thought to regulate imprinted expression of UBE3A in the brain. This transcript undergoes extensive alternative splicing, and may initiate and terminate at multiple locations within this genomic region. The full-length structure of all splice forms is not determined. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

This variant is also referred to as c.1249C>T (p.Arg417Ter) in the literature. This nonsense variant found in exon 4 of 11 is predicted to result in loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). This variant has been previously reported as a de novo change in a patient with Angelman syndrome (PMID: 8988172). Loss-of-function splicing variation in UBE3A is an established mechanism of disease (PMID: 20301323). This variant results in loss of a TaqI restriction enzyme site (PMID: 8988172). The c.1318C>T (p.Arg440Ter) variant is absent from the gnomAD population database and thus is presumed to be rare. Analysis of the parental samples was negative for the variant, indicating this variant likely occurred as a de novo event. Based on the available evidence, the c.1318C>T (p.Arg440Ter) variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg417*) in the UBE3A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in UBE3A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25212744). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Angelman syndrome (PMID: 8988172). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7966). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
