Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: PLA2G6 c.729_740del12 (p.Ala244_Asn247del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove 4 amino acids from the Ankyrin repeat (IPR002110) of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 248606 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.729_740del12 has been reported in the literature in two siblings affected with PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration (Al-Maawali_2016). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic (n=1) and as uncertain significance (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Iron accumulation in brain Pathogenic:1

In-frame deletion of 4 amino acids in a non-repeat region predicted to critically alter the protein; In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27516098) -
PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration Uncertain:1
The p.Ala244_Asn247del variant in PLA2G6 has been reported in 1 individual, in the compound heterozygous state, with PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration (PMID: 27516098), segregated with disease in 1 affected individual from 1 family (PMID: 27516098), and has been identified in 0.0009% (1/112430) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs587784360). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 159777) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by Genetic Services Laboratory (University of Chicago) and as pathogenic by GeneDx. This variant is a deletion of 4 amino acids at position 244 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is unclear if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala244_Asn247del variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_supporting, PM4 (Richards 2015). -
