Genes affected
TMEM127 (HGNC:26038): (transmembrane protein 127) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with four predicted transmembrane domains. The protein is associated with a subpopulation of vesicular organelles corresponding to early endosomal structures, with the Golgi, and with lysosomes, and may participate in protein trafficking between these structures. Mutations in this gene and several other genes cause pheochromocytomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2022]

The TMEM127 c.52C>T (p.Pro18Ser) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.018% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/), however data at this position may not be reliable due to a mean depth of coverage less than 30X. The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect of this variant on protein function, and to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

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

The TMEM127 c.52C>T (p.Pro18Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in at least one individual at high risk for breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 27153395 (2016)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000081 (1/122928 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1

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

The p.P18S variant (also known as c.52C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the TMEM127 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 52. The proline at codon 18 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in at least one patient with a personal and family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Maxwell KN et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2016 May;98:801-817). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:1

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

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 18 of the TMEM127 protein (p.Pro18Ser). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM127-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 486533). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
