Genes affected
TFG (HGNC:11758): (trafficking from ER to golgi regulator) There are several documented fusion oncoproteins encoded partially by this gene. This gene also participates in several oncogenic rearrangements resulting in anaplastic lymphoma and mixoid chondrosarcoma, and may play a role in the NF-kappaB pathway. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 30, 2021Published functional studies demonstrate damaging effects on protein secretion from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), ER morphology, and mitochondrial dysfunction (Beetz et al., 2013; Harlalka et al., 2016; Slosarek et al., 2018); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27535533, 32488467, 30157421, 30221345, 26945032, 24954637, 27813252, 25098539, 24613659, 27601211, 27492651, 29971521, 23479643) -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoMay 10, 2022DNA sequence analysis of the TGF gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.316C>T, in exon 4 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg106Cys. The p.Arg106Cys change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the TFG protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg106Cys substitution. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.0086% in the non-Finnish European subpopulation (dbSNP rs587777175). This pathogenic sequence change has previously been described in the homozygous state in individuals with autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia (PMID: 23479643, 27492651, 29971521). Heterozygous pathogenic variants have also been described in individuals with autosomal dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (PMID: 22883144). However, variants associated with autosomal dominant conditions appear to be located in a different region of the protein than the p.Arg106Cys substitution (PMID: 26945032). Heterozygous carriers of the p.Arg106Cys change have not been reported to be affected. The TGF cDNA reference sequence used is NM_006070.5 -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 18, 2020The p.R106C variant (also known as c.316C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the TFG gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 316. The arginine at codon 106 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was detected in the homozygous state in multiple unrelated families and segregates with autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia and optic nerve hypoplasia in affected relatives (Beetz C et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2013 Mar;110:5091-6; Harlalka GV et al. Hum Mutat, 2016 11;37:1157-1161; Kvarnung M et al. Clin Genet, 2018 12;94:528-537; Catania A et al. Neurogenetics, 2018 08;19:179-187). Functional studies with this alteration show impaired TFG protein oligomerization leading to abnormal ER function (Beetz C et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2013 Mar;110:5091-6; Harlalka GV et al. Hum Mutat, 2016 11;37:1157-1161; Slosarek EL et al. Cell Rep, 2018 08;24:2248-2260). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is pathogenic for spastic paraplegia 57 (SPG57); however, the clinical significance for hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, Okinawa type (HMSN-P) is unclear. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 25, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TFG function (PMID: 23479643, 27492651, 30157421). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TFG protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100909). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID: 23479643, 27492651, 29971521). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs587777175, gnomAD 0.009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 106 of the TFG protein (p.Arg106Cys). -
