Genes affected
MLC1 (HGNC:17082): (modulator of VRAC current 1) The function of this gene product is unknown; however, homology to other proteins suggests that it may be an integral membrane transporter. Mutations in this gene have been associated with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts, an autosomal recessive neurological disorder. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 15 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.5, offset of -25, new splice context is: gacGTgggt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 22-50084725-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-50084725-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 548493.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Pathogenic=3, Uncertain_significance=1}.

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 05, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548493). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (PMID: 12939431, 27264811). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the MLC1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MLC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11254442, 16470554, 24824219). -
