Genes affected
PCSK1 (HGNC:8743): (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1) This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. The encoded protein undergoes an initial autocatalytic processing event in the ER to generate a heterodimer which exits the ER and sorts to subcellular compartments where a second autocatalytic even takes place and the catalytic activity is acquired. The protease is packaged into and activated in dense core secretory granules and expressed in the neuroendocrine system and brain. This gene encodes one of the seven basic amino acid-specific members which cleave their substrates at single or paired basic residues. It functions in the proteolytic activation of polypeptide hormones and neuropeptides precursors. Mutations in this gene have been associated with susceptibility to obesity and proprotein convertase 1/3 deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
CAST (HGNC:1515): (calpastatin) The protein encoded by this gene is an endogenous calpain (calcium-dependent cysteine protease) inhibitor. It consists of an N-terminal domain L and four repetitive calpain-inhibition domains (domains 1-4), and it is involved in the proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein. The calpain/calpastatin system is involved in numerous membrane fusion events, such as neural vesicle exocytosis and platelet and red-cell aggregation. The encoded protein is also thought to affect the expression levels of genes encoding structural or regulatory proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

PCSK1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 11, 2024The PCSK1 c.1918A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr640Ala. This variant was reported to be associated with high body mass index (BMI) (Ayers et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29726959). This variant was also reported in one individual with hypothalamic amenorrhea and in two control individuals from a cohort study of women with hypothalamic amenorrhea (Delaney et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32870266). However, in vitro functional studies show similar activity to wild type (Supplemental Data Set, Shah et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36864747; Folon et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36822744), and it is also documented in the general population with an allele frequency up to 0.45% in Ashkenazi Jewish populations. These data indicate that this variant may confer a genetic risk for obesity but likely does not constitute a pathogenic variant for Mendelian disease. Taken together, although we suspect this variant may be benign for Mendelian disease, at this time its clinical significance is uncertain. -
