Genes affected
WWOX (HGNC:12799): (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 27, 2024In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25411445) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsJun 16, 2023Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools disagree on the variant's effect on normal protein function. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 13, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 188 of the WWOX protein (p.Arg188Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs199511589, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of WWOX-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410086). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt WWOX protein function. 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. -
