Genes affected

TUBGCP4 (HGNC:16691): (tubulin gamma complex component 4) This gene encodes a component of the gamma-tubulin ring complex, which is required for microtubule nucleation. In mammalian cells, the protein localizes to centrosomes in association with gamma-tubulin. Crystal structure analysis revealed a structure composed of five helical bundles arranged around conserved hydrophobic cores. An exposed surface area located in the C-terminal domain is essential and sufficient for direct binding to gamma-tubulin. Mutations in this gene that alter microtubule organization are associated with microcephaly and chorioretinopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -20 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.73).
• BP6: Variant 15-43395164-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr15-43395164-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 437137.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-43395164-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign].
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00377 (574/152188) while in subpopulation NFE AF= 0.00634 (431/67990). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00584. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 285 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 46 AR gene
