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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 29, 2021In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
PRX-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 25, 2023The PRX c.2449C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg817Cys. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-40901810-G-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 24, 2022The p.R817C variant (also known as c.2449C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the PRX gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2449. The arginine at codon 817 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is poorly 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. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4F Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This 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. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 16, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 817 of the PRX protein (p.Arg817Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs147441856, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 245733). 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 (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
