Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 0P and 0B.
The NM_007254.4(PNKP):c.671G>A(p.Arg224His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000502 in 1,614,018 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R224C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Inborn genetic diseases    Uncertain:1 
The c.671G>A (p.R224H) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 6) of the PNKP gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 671, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 224 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22508754) -
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 12    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 224 of the PNKP protein (p.Arg224His). This variant is present in population databases (rs199705876, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PNKP-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 159799). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PNKP protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
