Genes affected
SLC6A5 (HGNC:11051): (solute carrier family 6 member 5) This gene encodes a sodium- and chloride-dependent glycine neurotransmitter transporter. This integral membrane glycoprotein is responsible for the clearance of extracellular glycine during glycine-mediated neurotransmission. This protein is found in glycinergic axons and maintains a high presynaptic pool of neurotransmitter at glycinergic synapses. Mutations in this gene cause hyperekplexia; a heterogenous neurological disorder characterized by exaggerated startle responses and neonatal apnea. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

The c.1131C>A;p.(Tyr377*) variant creates a premature translational stop signal in the SLC6A5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product -PVS1. This sequence change has been observed in affected individual(s) and ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (ClinVar ID: 5761; PMID: 16884688; 16751771; 31604777; 32714574; 22114948; 29859229; 18707791; 22700964; 33310157) - PS4. Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies support a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 16884688) - PS3_supporting. The variant is present at low allele frequencies population databases (rs121908493 – gnomAD 0.003285%; ABraOM no frequency - http://abraom.ib.usp.br/) -PM2_supporting. The p.(Tyr377*) was detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 16751771) - PM3. The variant co-segregated with disease in multiple affected family members (PMID: 16884688) - PP1. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr377*) in the SLC6A5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC6A5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14622583, 16751771, 22700964). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908493, gnomAD 0.002%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with hyperekplexia (PMID: 16751771, 16884688). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5761). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
