Genes affected

FTL (HGNC:3999): (ferritin light chain) This gene encodes the light subunit of the ferritin protein. Ferritin is the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rates of iron uptake and release in different tissues. A major function of ferritin is the storage of iron in a soluble and nontoxic state. Defects in this light chain ferritin gene are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases and hyperferritinemia-cataract syndrome. This gene has multiple pseudogenes.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-48965340-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-48965340-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 16476.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr19-48965340-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.1).. Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the FTL gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FTL protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with hyperferritinemia-cataract syndrome (PMID: 9226182, 16518306, 28746593). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16476). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
