Genes affected
EPM2A (HGNC:3413): (EPM2A glucan phosphatase, laforin) This gene encodes a dual-specificity phosphatase and may be involved in the regulation of glycogen metabolism. The protein acts on complex carbohydrates to prevent glycogen hyperphosphorylation, thus avoiding the formation of insoluble aggregates. Loss-of-function mutations in this gene have been associated with Lafora disease, a rare, adult-onset recessive neurodegenerative disease, which results in myoclonus epilepsy and usually results in death several years after the onset of symptoms. The disease is characterized by the accumulation of insoluble particles called Lafora bodies, which are derived from glycogen. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2018]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -19 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.32).
BP6
Variant 6-145735328-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-145735328-C-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 137217.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.497 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000447 (66/147812) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0127 (62/4890). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0102. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 42 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 4 AR gene
