Genes affected
PRX (HGNC:13797): (periaxin) This gene encodes a protein involved in peripheral nerve myelin upkeep. The encoded protein contains 2 PDZ domains which were named after PSD95 (post synaptic density protein), DlgA (Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor), and ZO1 (a mammalian tight junction protein). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene which encode different protein isoforms and which are targeted differently in the Schwann cell. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuoropathy, type 4F and Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 07, 2022The c.994A>G (p.T332A) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 4) of the PRX gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 994, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 332 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMar 06, 2020The PRX c.994A>G; p.Thr332Ala variant (rs143710873), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 216837). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an overall allele frequency of 0.007% (9/124700 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The threonine at codon 332 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. However, due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Thr332Ala variant is uncertain at this time. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 17, 2022This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 332 of the PRX protein (p.Thr332Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs143710873, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PRX-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216837). 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. -
