Genes affected

NIPBL (HGNC:28862): (NIPBL cohesin loading factor) This gene encodes the homolog of the Drosophila melanogaster Nipped-B gene product and fungal Scc2-type sister chromatid cohesion proteins. The Drosophila protein facilitates enhancer-promoter communication of remote enhancers and plays a role in developmental regulation. It is also homologous to a family of chromosomal adherins with broad roles in sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, and DNA repair. The human protein has a bipartite nuclear targeting sequence and a putative HEAT repeat. Condensins, cohesins and other complexes with chromosome-related functions also contain HEAT repeats. Mutations in this gene result in Cornelia de Lange syndrome, a disorder characterized by dysmorphic facial features, growth delay, limb reduction defects, and cognitive disability. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 5-37014766-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-37014766-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1074354.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NIPBL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15318302, 19763162, 23505322, 29995837). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Cornelia de Lange syndrome (PMID: 24218399). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 22 of the NIPBL gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
