Genes affected

PCNT (HGNC:16068): (pericentrin) The protein encoded by this gene binds to calmodulin and is expressed in the centrosome. It is an integral component of the pericentriolar material (PCM). The protein contains a series of coiled-coil domains and a highly conserved PCM targeting motif called the PACT domain near its C-terminus. The protein interacts with the microtubule nucleation component gamma-tubulin and is likely important to normal functioning of the centrosomes, cytoskeleton, and cell-cycle progression. Mutations in this gene cause Seckel syndrome-4 and microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

The PCNT c.5115G>A variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant occurs at the terminal nucleotide of an exon and is predicted to weaken a splice donor site based on available splicing prediction programs (SpliceAI, Jaganathan K, et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30661751). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

This sequence change affects codon 1705 of the PCNT mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PCNT protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 27, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs141860893, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PCNT-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436199). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
