Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_006772.3(SYNGAP1):c.333del(p.Lys114SerfsTer20) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P111P) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

SYNGAP1 (HGNC:11497): (synaptic Ras GTPase activating protein 1) This gene encodes a Ras GTPase activating protein that is a member of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor complex. The N-terminal domain of the protein contains a Ras-GAP domain, a pleckstrin homology domain, and a C2 domain that may be involved in binding of calcium and phospholipids. The C-terminal domain consists of a ten histidine repeat region, serine and tyrosine phosphorylation sites, and a T/SXV motif required for postsynaptic scaffold protein interaction. The encoded protein negatively regulates Ras, Rap and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor trafficking to the postsynaptic membrane to regulate synaptic plasticity and neuronal homeostasis. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 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 6-33432197-CA-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-33432197-CA-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 430456.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr6-33432197-CA-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Intellectual disability, autosomal dominant 5 Pathogenic:3 Other:1

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Sep 08, 2023	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430456). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autism and/or intellectual disability (PMID: 25418537). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys114Serfs*20) in the SYNGAP1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SYNGAP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23161826, 23708187, 26989088). -

Assertions are reported exactly as they appear on the patient provided laboratory report. GenomeConnect does not attempt to reinterpret the variant. The IDDRC-CTSA National Brain Gene Registry (BGR) is a study funded by the U.S. National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and includes 13 Intellectual and Developmental Disability Research Center (IDDRC) institutions. The study is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Philip Payne from Washington University. The BGR is a data commons of gene variants paired with subject clinical information. This database helps scientists learn more about genetic changes and their impact on the brain and behavior. Participation in the Brain Gene Registry requires participation in GenomeConnect.
