Genes affected
PIGN (HGNC:8967): (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class N) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This protein is expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum and transfers phosphoethanolamine (EtNP) to the first mannose of the GPI anchor. Two alternatively spliced variants, which encode an identical isoform, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 23, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg587*) in the PIGN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PIGN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24253414, 27038415). This variant is present in population databases (rs376226764, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PIGN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 581123). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
