Genes affected
IFITM5 (HGNC:16644): (interferon induced transmembrane protein 5) This gene encodes a membrane protein thought to play a role in bone mineralization. This gene is located on chromosome 11 in a cluster of related genes which are induced by interferon, however, this gene has not been shown to be interferon inducible. A similar gene, located in a gene cluster on mouse chromosome 7, is a member of the interferon-inducible fragilis gene family. The mouse gene encodes a transmembrane protein described as participating in germ cell competence. A mutation in the 5' UTR of this gene has been associated with osteogenesis imperfecta type V (PMID: 22863190, 22863195). [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

The IFITM5 c.-14C>T variant (rs587776916) is reported in the literature as a recurrent variant in individuals affected with osteogenesis imperfecta type V, including several de novo occurrences (Cho 2012, Lazarus 2014, Maddirevula 2018, Rauch 2013, Shapiro 2013, Tyurin 2022, Zhytnik 2019). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37143), but is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant is located in the 5' untranslated region and creates a novel protein translation start codon, resulting in the addition of five amino acids (Cho 2012, Lazarus 2014). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Cho TJ et al. A single recurrent mutation in the 5'-UTR of IFITM5 causes osteogenesis imperfecta type V.

Heterozygous variant c.-14C>T in 5' UTR has been observed in IFITM5 gene. The proband born of a non-consanguineous marriage, presented with clinical indications of inability to stand or walk, traumatic fracture in midshaft of the right femur and had soft skull at birth. X-ray showed multiple rib fractures. The patient in our clinical analysis was diagnosed with the said variant in an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. This variant introduces alternative start codon, adding 5 amino acid residues to the N terminus of the protein. Transgenic mice models show that mutant IFITM5 mice exhibit perinatal lethality with severe defects of the long bones and ribs (Lietman CD et al. Journal of Bone and Mineral Research 2015). The variant has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and ExAC databases and has a minor allele frequency of 0.02%. The in silico prediction of the variant is possibly damaging by MutationTaster2. In summary, the said variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic based on the mode of inheritance, in silico prediction and allele frequency in population databases. -

The IFITM5 c.-14C>T variant occurs in the 5' untranslated region. Across a selection of the available literature, this variant has been identified in over 95 individuals with variable phenotypes consistent with osteogenesis imperfecta, type V (PMID: 22863190; 23240094; 23408678; 23612438; 23674381; 23813632; 24674092; 31159867; 31244780). Both familial segregation as well as de novo occurrences have been observed. This variant is predicted to introduce five amino acid residues at the N-terminus of the IFITM5 protein due to the creation of an in-frame translation initiation codon upstream of the wild-type initiation codon. In vitro expression of this variant in a cell line confirmed this prediction due to the presence of a slightly larger protein detected by immunoblotting (PMID: 22863190). Additionally, transgenic mice that express this variant exhibited bone abnormalities consistent with those observed in patients (PMID: 25251575). This variant has been classified as pathogenic by at least three submitters in ClinVar. This variant is not observed in version 2.1.1 or version 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. Based on the available evidence, the c.-14C>T variant is classified as pathogenic for osteogenesis imperfecta, type V. -

Variant summary: IFITM5 c.-14C>T is located in the untranslated mRNA region upstream of the initiation codon. It has been found to generate an upstream start codon which results in an IFITM5 protein with five additional amino acids at its N-terminus (Cho_2012). The variant was absent in 72430 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.-14C>T has been reported in the literature in the heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 5, has been found to segregate with the disease phenotype in multiple families, and has been reported as a de novo occurrence in several affected individuals (e.g. Cho_2012, Liu_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22863190, 28725987). Fourteen submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic (n=13)/likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the IFITM5 gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the IFITM5 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with osteogenesis imperfecta (PMID: 22863190, 23977282, 31099171). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37143). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The IFITM5 c.-14C>T variant is located in the 5' untranslated region. This variant is in the 5’ untranslated region (5’UTR) of the gene and is a known recurrent pathogenic variant in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (Cho et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22863190; Lazarus et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24674092; Mrosk et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29499418). Functional studies have shown that this variant introduces a novel in frame start codon in the 5’UTR of the gene and results in a longer protein (Lazarus et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24674092). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
