Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1PM2

The NM_006214.4(PHYH):​c.526C>T​(p.Gln176*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,614,044 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q176Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected
PHYH (HGNC:8940): (phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase) This gene is a member of the PhyH family and encodes a peroxisomal protein that is involved in the alpha-oxidation of 3-methyl branched fatty acids. Specifically, this protein converts phytanoyl-CoA to 2-hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Refsum disease (RD) and deficient protein activity has been associated with Zellweger syndrome and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
