Genes affected

UBQLN2 (HGNC:12509): (ubiquilin 2) This gene encodes an ubiquitin-like protein (ubiquilin) that shares high degree of similarity with related products in yeast, rat and frog. Ubiquilins contain a N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain and a C-terminal ubiquitin-associated domain. They physically associate with both proteasomes and ubiquitin ligases; and thus, are thought to functionally link the ubiquitination machinery to the proteasome to affect in vivo protein degradation. This ubiquilin has also been shown to bind the ATPase domain of the Hsp70-like Stch protein. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 497 of the UBQLN2 protein (p.Pro497Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PMID: 21857683). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29951). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant disrupts the p.Pro497 amino acid residue in UBQLN2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 21857683, 24215460, 25398946, 30348461). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
