Genes affected

PLOD1 (HGNC:9081): (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1) Lysyl hydroxylase is a membrane-bound homodimeric protein localized to the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum. The enzyme (cofactors iron and ascorbate) catalyzes the hydroxylation of lysyl residues in collagen-like peptides. The resultant hydroxylysyl groups are attachment sites for carbohydrates in collagen and thus are critical for the stability of intermolecular crosslinks. Some patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VI have deficiencies in lysyl hydroxylase activity. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 11 of the PLOD1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PLOD1 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant is present in population databases (rs370358836, ExAC 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PLOD1-related disease. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The POLD1 c.1202+3G>A variant (rs370358836), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 508335). This variant is only observed on five alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This is an intronic variant and computational analyses (Alamut Visual Plus v.1.5.1) predict that this variant does not alter splicing. However, since this variant is located within the minimal splice region, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: PLOD1 c.1202+3G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.9e-05 in 205154 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1202+3G>A in individuals affected with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 508335). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1202+3G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 3 nucleotides after coding exon 11 in the PLOD1 gene. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
