The NM_000304.4(PMP22):c.83G>A (p.Trp28*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The gene PMP22 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 1 TSG, 2 oncogene citations). The gene PMP22 is a known oncogene (CancerMine: 1 TSG, 2 oncogene citations). The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★).

Genes affected

PMP22 (HGNC:9118): (peripheral myelin protein 22) This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that is a major component of myelin in the peripheral nervous system. Studies suggest two alternately used promoters drive tissue-specific expression. Various mutations of this gene are causes of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Type IA, Dejerine-Sottas syndrome, and hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Classification according to ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	O1Established oncogenic variant		TSG gene: ClinVar germline P/LP ★★+ — Moderate (O1); O1 contributing sources (2.0 pts): ClinVar germline P/LP in TSG (★★)
	O2Null variant in tumour suppressor gene		Frameshift/stop-gained, NMD predicted, LoF oncogenic mechanism — O2 very strong (+8); Use caution in the presence of multiple transcripts; Gene confirmed as TSG in CancerMine (TSG: 1 citations, oncogene: 2 citations, driver: 0 citations).; Frameshift/stop-gained. NMD predicted: true. LoF mechanism: true. Downstream pathogenic count: 0.
	O3Absent or very rare in population		Absent or extremely rare in gnomAD (AC ≤ 2) — O3 moderate; GnomAD: AF = absent, AC = 0 — absent/extremely rare (O3 moderate [+2])
