The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000205 in 1,612,666 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R251C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Aug 12, 2019 | Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Immunoblot analysis on skin fibroblasts from the homozygous proband showed a substantial reduction of PYCR1 expression (Reversade et al., 2009); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 16730026, 24035636, 19648921) - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Dec 17, 2023 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 251 of the PYCR1 protein (p.Arg251His). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918378, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cutis laxa (PMID: 19648921, 24035636; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13198). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PYCR1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Studies have shown that this missense change alters PYCR1 gene expression (PMID: 19648921). This variant disrupts the p.Arg251 amino acid residue in PYCR1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with PYCR1-related conditions (PMID: 30138938), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 18, 2021 | The c.752G>A (p.R251H) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the PYCR1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 752, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 251 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) database, the PYCR1 c.752G>A alteration was observed in <0.01% (3/279322) of total alleles studied, with a frequency of 0.01% (3/24596) in the African subpopulation. This alteration has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state with a second PYCR1 alteration in patients with clinical features of autosomal recessive cutis laxa (Reversade, 2009; Dimopoulou, 2013). Another alteration at this position (p.R251C) has been reported in trans with a second PYCR1 alteration in a patient with features of autosomal recessive cutis laxa (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. The p.R251 amino acid is located in the C-terminal dimerization domain, which is involved in dimer and active site formation (Nocek, 2005). The in silico prediction for the p.R251H alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. - |

Cutis laxa Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jan 20, 2023 | Variant summary: PYCR1 c.752G>A (p.Arg251His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase, dimerisation domain (IPR029036) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-06 in 247940 control chromosomes. c.752G>A has been reported in the literature as a biallelic homozygous or compound heterozygous genotype in at-least two individuals affected with features of Cutis Laxa - PYCR1 Related (example, PMID: 24035636, 19648921). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no quantifiable experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported although one study resulted in a reduction in protein abundance relative to controls cells (example, PMID: 19648921). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. - |
