Variant summary: TMEM126B c.397G>A (p.Asp133Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site and one predicts the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. Experimental evidence supports these predictions demonstrating the variant affects mRNA splicing leading to the utilization of an alternative splice site, which generated a truncated cDNA lacking 104 bp from exon 3 (Sanchez-Caballero_2016). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 248690 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.397G>A has been reported in the literature in two compound heterozygous individuals affected with Mitochondrial Complex 1 Deficiency (Sanchez-Caballero_2016). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27374773, 35160083) -
This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 133 of the TMEM126B protein (p.Asp133Asn). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 3, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs573006534, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mitochondrial complex I deficiency (PMID: 27374773). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 253166). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
