Genes affected

TMEM67 (HGNC:28396): (transmembrane protein 67) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the primary cilium and to the plasma membrane. The gene functions in centriole migration to the apical membrane and formation of the primary cilium. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Meckel syndrome type 3 (MKS3) and Joubert syndrome type 6 (JBTS6). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986

Variant summary: TMEM67 c.2002T>C (p.Trp668Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251406 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2002T>C has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in the literature in at least 1 individual affected with clinical features of Meckel syndrome (example, Iannicelli_2010). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20232449). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56770). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
