Genes affected

TCOF1 (HGNC:11654): (treacle ribosome biogenesis factor 1) This gene encodes a nucleolar protein with a LIS1 homology domain. The protein is involved in ribosomal DNA gene transcription through its interaction with upstream binding factor (UBF). Mutations in this gene have been associated with Treacher Collins syndrome, a disorder which includes abnormal craniofacial development. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 5-150398364-CAA-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-150398364-CAA-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 503704.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr5-150398364-CAA-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.4355_4356delAA variant in the TCOF1 gene has been reported previously in at least one individual suspicious for Treacher Collins syndrome (Splendore et al., 2002). This deletion causes a frameshift starting with codon Lysine 1452, changes this amino acid to an Arginine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 18 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys1452ArgfsX18. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Based on currently available evidence, c.4355_4356delAA is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant. However, the possibility it may be a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys1452Argfs*18) in the TCOF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TCOF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8894686, 22317976). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Treacher Collins syndrome (PMID: 12114482). This variant is also known as c.4124-4125delAA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 503704). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
