Genes affected
FXN (HGNC:3951): (frataxin) This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial protein which belongs to the FRATAXIN family. The protein functions in regulating mitochondrial iron transport and respiration. The expansion of intronic trinucleotide repeat GAA from 8-33 repeats to >90 repeats results in Friedreich ataxia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 18 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PS1
Another start lost variant in NM_000144.5 (FXN) was described as [Pathogenic] in ClinVar
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 9-69035783-AT-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-69035783-AT-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 3384335.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
