Genes affected
PCNT (HGNC:16068): (pericentrin) The protein encoded by this gene binds to calmodulin and is expressed in the centrosome. It is an integral component of the pericentriolar material (PCM). The protein contains a series of coiled-coil domains and a highly conserved PCM targeting motif called the PACT domain near its C-terminus. The protein interacts with the microtubule nucleation component gamma-tubulin and is likely important to normal functioning of the centrosomes, cytoskeleton, and cell-cycle progression. Mutations in this gene cause Seckel syndrome-4 and microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 10, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2918*) in the PCNT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PCNT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18174396, 22821869). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4710). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primordial dwarfism (PMID: 18174396). -
