Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5

The NM_000377.3(WAS):​c.134C>G​(p.Thr45Arg) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T45M) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
WAS (HGNC:12731): (WASP actin nucleation promoting factor) The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) family of proteins share similar domain structure, and are involved in transduction of signals from receptors on the cell surface to the actin cytoskeleton. The presence of a number of different motifs suggests that they are regulated by a number of different stimuli, and interact with multiple proteins. Recent studies have demonstrated that these proteins, directly or indirectly, associate with the small GTPase, Cdc42, known to regulate formation of actin filaments, and the cytoskeletal organizing complex, Arp2/3. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a rare, inherited, X-linked, recessive disease characterized by immune dysregulation and microthrombocytopenia, and is caused by mutations in the WAS gene. The WAS gene product is a cytoplasmic protein, expressed exclusively in hematopoietic cells, which show signalling and cytoskeletal abnormalities in WAS patients. A transcript variant arising as a result of alternative promoter usage, and containing a different 5' UTR sequence, has been described, however, its full-length nature is not known.

The WAS c.134C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr45Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. However, different missense substitutions at this codon (e.g: p.Thr45Lys; p.Thr45Met) have been observed in individuals with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (Zhang et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20546529; Kwan et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7753869) suggesting that substitution of amino acid residue p.Thr45 is not tolerated. Additionally, an individual with this variant was found to have decreased WAS activity level (internal data at PreventionGenetics). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
