Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 3P and 5B. PM1PP3BS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_004924.6(ACTN4):​c.738C>G​(p.Ile246Met) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000821 in 1,461,774 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. I246L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
ACTN4 (HGNC:166): (actinin alpha 4) Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a nonmuscle, alpha actinin isoform which is concentrated in the cytoplasm, and thought to be involved in metastatic processes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_004924.6
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.813
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00000821 (12/1461774) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000139 (12/86250). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00008. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 12 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 12 AD gene.
