Genes affected

POMT2 (HGNC:19743): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT1 gene for enzymatic function. The encoded protein is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Defects in this gene are a cause of Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS).[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 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 14-77280050-CTG-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-77280050-CTG-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 538732.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the POMT2 gene (p.Thr585Argfs*194). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 166 amino acid(s) of the POMT2 protein and extend the protein by 27 additional amino acid residues. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POMT2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 538732). This variant disrupts a region of the POMT2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp748Arg) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17634419, 17869517). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
