Genes affected

TUBB4A (HGNC:20774): (tubulin beta 4A class IVa) This gene encodes a member of the beta tubulin family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. Mutations in this gene cause hypomyelinating leukodystrophy-6 and autosomal dominant torsion dystonia-4. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), TUBB4A. . Gene score misZ 4.2623 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 5.1229 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with torsion dystonia 4, TUBB4A-related neurologic disorder, hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 6.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.99
