Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PS1_ModeratePM1PM2PM5PP3

The NM_001173464.2(KIF21A):​c.2861G>T​(p.Arg954Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in UniProt. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R954W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
KIF21A (HGNC:19349): (kinesin family member 21A) This gene encodes a member of the KIF4 subfamily of kinesin-like motor proteins. The encoded protein is characterized by an N-terminal motor domain a coiled-coil stalk domain and a C-terminal WD-40 repeat domain. This protein may be involved in microtubule dependent transport. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles-1. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.65 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.27 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with KIF21A related disorder (PMID: 17511870).Different missense changes at the same codon (p.Arg954Gln, p.Arg954Trp) have been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000002436, VCV000002437 /PMID: 14595441 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
