UROD-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The UROD c.942G>A variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). This variant was reported in an individual with familial porphyria cutanea tarda and functional studies showed the c.942G>A variant results in aberrant splicing through exon 9 skipping (Mendez et al 1998. PubMed ID: 9792863). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-45480678-G-A). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
This sequence change affects codon 314 of the UROD mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the UROD protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs121918062, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with porphyria cutanea tarda (PMID: 9792863). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 72). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in exon 9 skipping and introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 9792863). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
