Genes affected
TWNK (HGNC:1160): (twinkle mtDNA helicase) This gene encodes a hexameric DNA helicase which unwinds short stretches of double-stranded DNA in the 5' to 3' direction and, along with mitochondrial single-stranded DNA binding protein and mtDNA polymerase gamma, is thought to play a key role in mtDNA replication. The protein localizes to the mitochondrial matrix and mitochondrial nucleoids. Mutations in this gene cause infantile onset spinocerebellar ataxia (IOSCA) and progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO) and are also associated with several mitochondrial depletion syndromes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 27, 2022Variant summary: C10orf2 c.1120C>T (p.Arg374Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251374 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1120C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia, with confirmed segregation in two families (Echaniz-Laguna_2010), and in one individual with a positive family history suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance (Vandenberghe_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One ClinVar submitter has assessed the variant since 2014: the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
