Genes affected
HIKESHI (HGNC:26938): (heat shock protein nuclear import factor hikeshi) This gene encodes an evolutionarily conserved nuclear transport receptor that mediates heat-shock-induced nuclear import of 70 kDa heat-shock proteins (Hsp70s) through interactions with FG-nucleoporins. The protein mediates transport of the ATP form but not the ADP form of Hsp70 proteins under conditions of heat shock stress. Structural analyses demonstrate that the protein forms an asymmetric homodimer and that the N-terminal domain consists of a jelly-roll/beta-sandwich fold structure that contains hydrophobic pockets involved in FG-nucleoporin recognition. Reduction of RNA expression levels in HeLa cells using small interfering RNAs results in inhibition of heat shock-induced nuclear accumulation of Hsp70s, indicating a role for this gene in regulation of Hsp70 nuclear import during heat shock stress.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 15, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HIKESHI function (PMID: 26545878). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224891). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital leukodystrophy (PMID: 26545878, 31912665). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs202003795, gnomAD 0.3%). This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 54 of the HIKESHI protein (p.Val54Leu). -
HIKESHI-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 13, 2023The HIKESHI c.160G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val54Leu. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in multiple individuals with hypomyelinating leukodystrophy-13, and segregated with disease in families (Edvardson et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26545878). In addition, Edvardson et al. demonstrated that homozygous patients had undetectable levels of the HIKESHI protein in fibroblasts. This variant is reported in 0.27% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-86017416-G-C). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
