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.

ENSG00000279956 (HGNC:):

STON1-GTF2A1L (HGNC:30651): (STON1-GTF2A1L readthrough) STON1-GTF2A1L mRNAs are infrequent but naturally occurring read-through products of the neighboring STON1 and GTF2A1L genes. These transcripts encode fusion proteins composed of the vast majority of each of the individual elements, stonin 1 and general transcription factor IIA, 1-like. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The significance of these read-through variants and the function of the resulting protein products have not yet been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

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.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 29 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.16259 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.035144 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Leydig cell hypoplasia, type 1, familial male-limited precocious puberty.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.975
• PP5: Variant 2-48688770-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-48688770-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 14409.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
