Genes affected

DNAH5 (HGNC:2950): (dynein axonemal heavy chain 5) This gene encodes a dynein protein, which is part of a microtubule-associated motor protein complex consisting of heavy, light, and intermediate chains. This protein is an axonemal heavy chain dynein. It functions as a force-generating protein with ATPase activity, whereby the release of ADP is thought to produce the force-producing power stroke. Mutations in this gene cause primary ciliary dyskinesia type 3, as well as Kartagener syndrome, which are both diseases due to ciliary defects. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.78).

Primary ciliary dyskinesia Uncertain:3

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jul 06, 2022	This sequence change falls in intron 38 of the DNAH5 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DNAH5 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs377638408, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DNAH5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 238982). Variants that disrupt 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. 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. -
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Nov 11, 2019	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Feb 21, 2024	The c.6444+4T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution 4 nucleotides after coding exon 38 in the DNAH5 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. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
