Genes affected
GDF1 (HGNC:4214): (growth differentiation factor 1) This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. Studies in rodents suggest that this protein is involved in the establishment of left-right asymmetry in early embryogenesis and in neural development in later embryogenesis. The encoded protein is translated from a bicistronic mRNA that also encodes ceramide synthase 1. Mutations in this gene are associated with several congenital cardiovascular malformations.

CERS1 (HGNC:14253): (ceramide synthase 1) This gene encodes a ceramide synthase enzyme, which catalyzes the synthesis of ceramide, the hydrophobic moiety of sphingolipids. The encoded enzyme synthesizes 18-carbon (C18) ceramide in brain neurons. Elevated expression of this gene may be associated with increased longevity, while decreased expression of this gene may be associated with myoclonus epilepsy with dementia in human patients. This protein is transcribed from a monocistronic mRNA as well as a bicistronic mRNA, which also encodes growth differentiation factor 1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 28, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val304Argfs*48) in the GDF1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 69 amino acid(s) of the GDF1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs606231383, gnomAD 0.1%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of GDF1-related conditions and/or right atrial isomerism (PMID: 20413652, 34486251). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.909insC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65389). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
