Genes affected

EIF2AK4 (HGNC:19687): (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 4) This gene encodes a member of a family of kinases that phosphorylate the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor-2 (EIF2), resulting in the downregulaton of protein synthesis. The encoded protein responds to amino acid deprivation by binding uncharged transfer RNAs. It may also be activated by glucose deprivation and viral infection. Mutations in this gene have been found in individuals suffering from autosomal recessive pulmonary venoocclusive-disease-2. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg249*) in the EIF2AK4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in EIF2AK4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12215525, 24135949, 24292273, 24310610, 28972005, 29743074). This variant is present in population databases (rs202140402, ExAC 0.01%). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 426051). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PMID: 24292273). In at least one individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. -
