Genes affected

RMRP (HGNC:10031): (RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease) This gene encodes the RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease, which cleaves mitochondrial RNA at a priming site of mitochondrial DNA replication. This RNA also interacts with the telomerase reverse transcriptase catalytic subunit to form a distinct ribonucleoprotein complex that has RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity and produces double-stranded RNAs that can be processed into small interfering RNA. Mutations in this gene are associated with cartilage-hair hypoplasia.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 9-35657978-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-35657978-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 550994.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr9-35657978-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.3).. Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Oct 04, 2021	Variant summary: RMRP n.41G>A alters a nucleotide in the non-coding RNA. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.7e-06 in 130626 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. n.41G>A (also known as g.40G>A) has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cartilage-Hair Hypoplasia (Bonafe_2005, Bordon_2010). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one functional study reports this variant altered the structure of the P3 apical stem loop, which, in contrast to the wild type P3 domain is not efficiently bound by the Rpp20-Rpp25 heterodimer (Welting_2008). Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	Sep 01, 2022	The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Non-coding variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000550994). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This variant occurs in the RMRP gene, which encodes an RNA molecule that does not result in a protein product. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cartilage hair hypoplasia (PMID: 16244706, 20375313). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as g.40G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550994). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects RMRP function (PMID: 18164267). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
