Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5
The NM_006279.5(ST3GAL3):c.660C>A(p.Tyr220Ter) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Y220Y) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
ST3GAL3 (HGNC:10866): (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 3) The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to galactose-containing substrates. The encoded protein is normally found in the Golgi apparatus but can be proteolytically processed to a soluble form. This protein is a member of glycosyltransferase family 29. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of autosomal recessive nonsymdromic cognitive disability as well as infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]
Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.
PVS1
?
PVS1 - null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single or multiexon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PM2
?
PM2 - Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
?
PP5 - Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation
