Genes affected
C19orf12 (HGNC:25443): (chromosome 19 open reading frame 12) This gene encodes a small transmembrane protein. Mutations in this gene are a cause of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation-4 (NBIA4), but the specific function of the encoded protein is unknown. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Hereditary spastic paraplegia 43 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 24, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly69Argfs*10) in the C19orf12 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 84 amino acid(s) of the C19orf12 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs515726204, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation or mitochondria protein-associated neurodegeneration (PMID: 21981780, 23436634, 28641177, 30392167). It is commonly reported in individuals of Polish ancestry (PMID: 21981780, 23436634, 28641177, 30392167). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31155). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionJan 03, 2022Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported in the predicted truncated region (PVS1_S). The variant has been reported to be associated with C19orf12 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000031155, PMID:21981780).It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000100, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 29, 2023Variant summary: C19orf12 c.171_181del11/p.Gly58ArgfsX10 (legacy name c.204_214del11/p.Gly69ArgfsX10) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been associated with Neurodegeneration With Brain Iron Accumulation in HGMD. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 249194 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in C19orf12 causing Neurodegeneration With Brain Iron Accumulation (7.6e-05 vs 0.0006). c.171_181del11 has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Neurodegeneration With Brain Iron Accumulation (Gregory_2019, Sparber_2021, etc). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five ClinVar submitters have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic (n=3) or likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
C19orf12-related condition Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesNov 29, 2023The C19orf12 c.204_214del11 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Gly69Argfs*10). This variant has primarily been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous states in individuals with autosomal recessive neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (see for example, Table 1, Hartig et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21981780; Table 1, Schulte et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23436634; Goldman et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23494994). In these studies heterozygous carriers were reported as unaffected. However, in a single case it has also been associated with autosomal dominant neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (Table 1, Sparber et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33607528). This variant has been classified as pathogenic in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/31155/). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic in the context of autosomal recessive disease, and as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of autosomal dominant disease. -
