Genes affected
FBXL4 (HGNC:13601): (F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 4) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family, which are characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. F-box proteins constitute one subunit of modular E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, called SCF complexes, which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box domain mediates protein-protein interactions and binds directly to S-phase kinase-associated protein 1. In addition to an F-box domain, the encoded protein contains at least 9 tandem leucine-rich repeats. The ubiquitin ligase complex containing the encoded protein may function in cell-cycle control by regulating levels of lysine-specific demethylase 4A. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 13 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of MedicineAug 10, 2017The NM_012160.4:c.106A>T (NP_036292.2:p.Arg36Ter) [GRCH38: NC_000006.12:g.98926883T>A] variant in FBXL4 gene is interpretated to be a Pathogenic based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant has been reported in PMID:23993194 . This variant meets one or more of the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PVS1:This variant is a predcted null variant in FBXL4 where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. PM3:Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant for Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 13 which is a recessive disorder. PP4:Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for FBXL4. PP5:Reputable source(s) suggest that the variant is pathogenic. Based on this evidence code ClinGen Pathogenicity Calculator (PMID:28081714) suggested that the variant is Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 02, 2021For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 437488). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy (PMID: 23993194). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg36*) in the FBXL4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FBXL4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23993193, 23993194, 25868664). -
