Genes affected

UBE3A (HGNC:12496): (ubiquitin protein ligase E3A) This gene encodes an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, part of the ubiquitin protein degradation system. This imprinted gene is maternally expressed in brain and biallelically expressed in other tissues. Maternally inherited deletion of this gene causes Angelman Syndrome, characterized by severe motor and intellectual retardation, ataxia, hypotonia, epilepsy, absence of speech, and characteristic facies. The protein also interacts with the E6 protein of human papillomavirus types 16 and 18, resulting in ubiquitination and proteolysis of tumor protein p53. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding three isoforms with different N-termini. Additional transcript variants have been described, but their full length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

SNHG14 (HGNC:37462): (small nucleolar RNA host gene 14) This gene is located within the Prader-Willi critical region and produces a long, spliced paternally-imprinted RNA that initiates within a common upstream promoter region shared by the SNRPN (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N) and SNURF genes. This transcript serves as a host RNA for the small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 115 and 116 clusters. This RNA extends in antisense into the region of the ubiquitin protein ligase E3A gene (UBE3A), and is thought to regulate imprinted expression of UBE3A in the brain. This transcript undergoes extensive alternative splicing, and may initiate and terminate at multiple locations within this genomic region. The full-length structure of all splice forms is not determined. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the UBE3A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 44 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 6.9443 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Angelman syndrome.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.38893163).

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been reported as maternally inherited in an individual referred for UBE3A gene testing, however the proband's mother and maternal grandmother were unaffected  (PMID: 25212744). Considering that UBE3A is maternally imprinted, the presence of maternal transmission (grandmother) to a clinically unaffected individual (mother) indicates that this variant is not a primary cause of disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces lysine with isoleucine at codon 701 of the UBE3A protein (p.Lys701Ile). The lysine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between lysine and isoleucine. -
