Genes affected
IFT74 (HGNC:21424): (intraflagellar transport 74) This gene encodes a core intraflagellar transport (IFT) protein which belongs to a multi-protein complex involved in the transport of ciliary proteins along axonemal microtubules. IFT proteins are found at the base of the cilium as well as inside the cilium, where they assemble into long arrays between the ciliary base and tip. This protein, together with intraflagellar transport protein 81, binds and transports tubulin within cilia and is required for ciliogenesis. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis--frontotemporal dementia and Bardet-Biedl Syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

IFT74-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 21, 2024The IFT74 c.120+2dupT variant is predicted to result in an intronic duplication. This variant is predicted to impact the consensus donor site based on available splicing prediction programs (Alamut Visual Plus v1.6.1), although it does not eliminate the consensus GT donor site sequence at the junction of exon 2 and intron 2 (GT>GTT). This variant has been identified in the heterozygous state in one patient with an autosomal recessive skeletal ciliopathy known as short rib-polydactyly syndrome type II (Table S3, Zhang et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29068549). This variant is reported in 0.066% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 05, 2022This sequence change falls in intron 2 of the IFT74 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the IFT74 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs551515830, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of IFT74-related conditions (PMID: 29068549). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446698). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
