Genes affected
LHCGR (HGNC:6585): (luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor) This gene encodes the receptor for both luteinizing hormone and choriogonadotropin. This receptor belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, and its activity is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Mutations in this gene result in disorders of male secondary sexual character development, including familial male precocious puberty, also known as testotoxicosis, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, Leydig cell adenoma with precocious puberty, and male pseudohermaphtoditism with Leydig cell hypoplasia.

GTF2A1L (HGNC:30727): (general transcription factor IIA subunit 1 like) The assembly and stability of the RNA polymerase II transcription pre-initiation complex on a eukaryotic core promoter involve the effects of transcription factor IIA (TFIIA) on the interaction between TATA-binding protein (TBP) and DNA. This gene encodes a germ cell-specific counterpart of the large (alpha/beta) subunit of general transcription factor TFIIA that is able to stabilize the binding of TBP to DNA and may be uniquely important to testis biology. Alternative splicing for this locus has been observed and two variants, encoding distinct isoforms, have been identified. Co-transcription of this gene and the neighboring upstream gene generates a rare transcript (SALF), which encodes a fusion protein comprised of sequence sharing identity with each individual gene product.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 07, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg554*) in the LHCGR gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 146 amino acid(s) of the LHCGR protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs121912524, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with LHCGR-related conditions (PMID: 8559204; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14392). This variant disrupts a region of the LHCGR protein in which other variant(s) (p.Ser616Tyr) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26246498, 27016457; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
