Genes affected
TBCK (HGNC:28261): (TBC1 domain containing kinase) This gene encodes a protein that contains a protein kinase domain, a Rhodanase-like domain and the Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16 (TBC) domain. The encoded protein is thought to play a role in actin organization, cell growth and cell proliferation by regulating the mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. This protein may also be involved in the transcriptional regulation of the components of the mTOR complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterAug 26, 2021The c.376C>T (p.Arg126Ter) variant identified in the TBCK gene results in the premature termination of the protein at amino acid 126/894 (coding exon 4/26). This is predicted to lead to the termination of the protein within the protein kinase domain and result in the absence of Rab-GAP TBC and RHOD domains. This variant is found with low frequency in gnomAD (13 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes; allele frequency: 7.48e-5) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in this database. This variant is reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar (VarID:225235), and has been reported in more than 10 affected individuals in the literature [PMID:27040692; PMID:27040691; PMID:29283439; PMID:31618753] in both homozygosity [PMID:27040692; PMID:27040691; PMID:29283439] and in compound heterozygosity with a second pathogenic variant [PMID:27040691; PMID:29283439]. Functional studies suggest this variant leads to increased levels of autophagic flux. This variant was identifed in homozygosity in an individual submitted for clinical WGS. Given the deleterious nature of the homozygous c.376C>T (p.Arg126Ter) variant identified in this individual, its low frequency in population databases, and the observation in many affected individuals in the literature, it is reported here as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 25, 2019Variant summary: TBCK c.376C>T (p.Arg126X) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.7e-05 in 142542 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in TBCK causing Hypotonia, infantile, with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies 3 (7.7e-05 vs 0.0011). c.376C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals, predominantly of Puerto Rican descent (in compound heterozygous or homozygous state) affected with Hypotonia, infantile, with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies 3 (Chong_2016, Bhoj_2016, Ortiz-Gonzlez_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Chong_2016 reports the variant perturbs the levels of both major TBCK protein isoforms in fibroblasts. Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg126*) in the TBCK gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TBCK are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 27040692, 30103036). This variant is present in population databases (rs575822089, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with TBCK-related severe infantile syndromic encephalopathy or TBCK-related intellectual disability and hypotonia syndrome (PMID: 27040691, 27040692). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225235). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 01, 2021The c.376C>T (p.R126*) alteration, located in exon 4 (coding exon 3) of the TBCK gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 376. This changes the amino acid from a Arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 126. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.007% (13/173798) total alleles studied. This alteration has been described in the homozygous state and compound heterozygous with a second TBCK variant in multiple unrelated individuals, primarily of Puerto Rican descent (Bhoj, 2016; Chong, 2016; Ortiz-Gonzalez, 2018; Baker, 2019; Ziats, 2020). Additionally, we have identified this variant in the homozygous state via whole exome sequencing at Ambry Genetics in four patients with clinical features of TBCK-related neurodevelopmental disorders. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
