The variant received -1 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025). B3_Supporting

The NM_032237.5(POMK):c.704A>G (p.Asn235Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.000101 (AC=163) in the gnomAD database across 1,614,058 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000236. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 8.78). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (no review stars).

Genes affected

POMK (HGNC:26267): (protein O-mannose kinase) This gene encodes a protein that may be involved in the presentation of the laminin-binding O-linked carbohydrate chain of alpha-dystroglycan (a-DG), which forms transmembrane linkages between the extracellular matrix and the exoskeleton. Some pathogens use this O-linked carbohydrate unit for host entry. Loss of function compound heterozygous mutations in this gene were found in a human patient affected by the Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) phenotype. Mice lacking this gene contain misplaced neurons (heterotopia) in some regions of the brain, possibly from defects in neuronal migration. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]
