Genes affected

TMEM127 (HGNC:26038): (transmembrane protein 127) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with four predicted transmembrane domains. The protein is associated with a subpopulation of vesicular organelles corresponding to early endosomal structures, with the Golgi, and with lysosomes, and may participate in protein trafficking between these structures. Mutations in this gene and several other genes cause pheochromocytomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2022]

The c.158G>C (p.W53S) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the TMEM127 gene. This alteration results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 158, causing the tryptophan (W) at amino acid position 53 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126963). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pheochromocytomas and/or paragangliomas (PMID: 21156949, 22136840). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 53 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Trp53Ser). -
