The p.R94W variant (also known as c.280C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TMEM127 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 280. The arginine at codon 94 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in individuals with paragangliomas and/or pheochromocytomas (Yao L, et al. JAMA 2010 Dec; 304(23):2611-9; Yonamine M et al. Cancers (Basel), 2021 Aug;13:). A subcellular localization assay performed by Yao, et al. demonstrated aberrant distribution of the mutant protein in the cytoplasm rather than the plasma membrane as observed in wild type protein. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate protein mislocalization (Yao et al., 2010); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21156949, 33051659, 34439168) -
Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 94 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Arg94Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908824, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pheochromocytoma (PMID: 21156949). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126967). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TMEM127 function (PMID: 21156949). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). 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. -
