Genes affected
DYNC2I2 (HGNC:28296): (dynein 2 intermediate chain 2) This gene encodes a member of the WD repeat protein family. WD repeats are minimally conserved regions of approximately 40 amino acids typically bracketed by gly-his and trp-asp (GH-WD), which may facilitate formation of heterotrimeric or multiprotein complexes. Members of this family are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, signal transduction, apoptosis, and gene regulation. Defects in this gene are a cause of short-rib thoracic dysplasia 11 with or without polydactyly. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
SPTAN1 (HGNC:11273): (spectrin alpha, non-erythrocytic 1) Spectrins are a family of filamentous cytoskeletal proteins that function as essential scaffold proteins that stabilize the plasma membrane and organize intracellular organelles. Spectrins are composed of alpha and beta dimers that associate to form tetramers linked in a head-to-head arrangement. This gene encodes an alpha spectrin that is specifically expressed in nonerythrocytic cells. The encoded protein has been implicated in other cellular functions including DNA repair and cell cycle regulation. Mutations in this gene are the cause of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-5. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Variant summary: DYNC2I2 c.1499C>T (p.Ala500Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00036 in 281920 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in DYNC2I2 causing Short-Rib Thoracic Dysplasia 11 With Or Without Polydactyly, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1499C>T in individuals affected with Short-Rib Thoracic Dysplasia 11 With Or Without Polydactyly and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569453). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1499C>T (p.A500V) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the WDR34 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1499, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 500 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 500 of the WDR34 protein (p.Ala500Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs142210358, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WDR34-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569453). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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.
