Genes affected
PEX1 (HGNC:8850): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the AAA ATPase family, a large group of ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities. This protein is cytoplasmic but is often anchored to a peroxisomal membrane where it forms a heteromeric complex and plays a role in the import of proteins into peroxisomes and peroxisome biogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with complementation group 1 peroxisomal disorders such as neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, infantile Refsum disease, and Zellweger syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Variant summary: PEX1 c.2442C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 4/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0024 in 251264 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0033 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is comparable to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PEX1 causing Zellweger Syndrome (0.0039), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2442C>T in individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign (1x) and once as uncertain significance. An additional submitter (evaluation in 2013) cites the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
