Genes affected
HNRNPU (HGNC:5048): (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U) This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that bind nucleic acids and function in the formation of ribonucleoprotein complexes in the nucleus with heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA). The encoded protein has affinity for both RNA and DNA, and binds scaffold-attached region (SAR) DNA. Mutations in this gene have been associated with epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, 54. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on chromosome 14. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2017]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.5).
BP6
Variant 1-244855607-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-244855607-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 414105.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.15 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0064 (973/152092) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0101 (686/67974). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00947. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 437 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
