Genes affected

EHMT1 (HGNC:24650): (euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates the lysine-9 position of histone H3. This action marks the genomic region packaged with these methylated histones for transcriptional repression. This protein may be involved in the silencing of MYC- and E2F-responsive genes and therefore could play a role in the G0/G1 cell cycle transition. Defects in this gene are a cause of chromosome 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome (9q-syndrome, also known as Kleefstra syndrome). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

EHMT1 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04285348 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.7, offset of 23, new splice context is: ctttctttctcgggattcAGatg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 9-137813005-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-137813005-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 65733.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr9-137813005-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
