Genes affected

TH (HGNC:11782): (tyrosine hydroxylase) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the conversion of tyrosine to dopamine. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of catecholamines, hence plays a key role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive Segawa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-2171857-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2171857-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 558656.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr11-2171857-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.12). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

Variant summary: TH c.-71C>T alters a conserved nucleotide located within the cAMP response element (CRE) in the untranscribed region upstream of the TH gene. The variant was absent in 31334 control chromosomes. c.-71C>T has been reported in the literature as homozygous or compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Segawa Syndrome, Autosomal Recessive (DOPA-responsive dystonia) (example, Verbeek_2007, Ribases_2007, Stamelou_2012). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in a reduction of 90% of basal transcription of the TH promotor in-vitro (Tinti_1997). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32872068, 25910213, 17698383, 22815559, 17696123, 9235905). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the TH gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TH protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with TH-related conditions and dystonia (PMID: 17696123, 17698383, 22815559). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.1-71 C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558656). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects TH function (PMID: 9235905, 25910213). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
