Genes affected
PYCR1 (HGNC:9721): (pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1) This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the NAD(P)H-dependent conversion of pyrroline-5-carboxylate to proline. This enzyme may also play a physiologic role in the generation of NADP(+) in some cell types. The protein forms a homopolymer and localizes to the mitochondrion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 257 of the PYCR1 protein (p.Ala257Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs281875318, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with cutis laxa (PMID: 19648921, 30450527). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29863). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PYCR1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: PYCR1 c.769G>A (p.Ala257Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase dimerisation domain (IPR029036) of 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 2.4e-05 in 248344 control chromosomes. c.769G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous individuals affected with Cutis Laxa - PYCR1 Related (e.g., Reversade_2009, Lessel_2018). 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30450527, 19648921). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29863). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
