Genes affected
RMRP (HGNC:10031): (RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease) This gene encodes the RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease, which cleaves mitochondrial RNA at a priming site of mitochondrial DNA replication. This RNA also interacts with the telomerase reverse transcriptase catalytic subunit to form a distinct ribonucleoprotein complex that has RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity and produces double-stranded RNAs that can be processed into small interfering RNA. Mutations in this gene are associated with cartilage-hair hypoplasia.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 22, 2022Variant summary: RMRP n.140A>G (legacy name 139A>G) alters a non-conserved nucleotide in a non-coding RNA gene. In addition, predictive analysis based on RNA secondary structure conformation indicates that this nucleotide does not participate in base pairing, therefore, the likelihood of pathogenicity is expected to be low (PMID 17489853, 21956908). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00046 in 272286 control chromosomes (gnomAD v2.1 and v3 (non-v2) datasets), predominantly at a frequency of 0.0021 within the South Asian subpopulation, including 1 homozygote. Though this frequency is not higher than the estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in RMRP causing Cartilage-Hair Hypoplasia (0.0072), the relatively high frequency together with a homozygous occurrence suggests that the variant is likely a benign polymorphism. To our knowledge, no occurrence of n.140A>G in individuals affected with Cartilage-Hair Hypoplasia and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as VUS (n=1), or likely benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
