Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000466.3(PEX1):c.2614C>T(p.Arg872*) variant causes a stop gained change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000112 in 1,609,740 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R872R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 1A (Zellweger) Pathogenic:3
The PEX1 c.2614C>T (p.R872*) nonsense variant is predicted to result in an aberrant or absent protein. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in individuals with Zellweger spectrum disorder (PMID: 21031596; 12032265; 19105186; 20301621). -
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Heimler syndrome 1 (MIM#234580), peroxisome biogenesis disorder 1A (Zellweger; MIM#214100) and peroxisome biogenesis disorder 1B (NALD/IRD; MIM#601539). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0252 - This variant is homozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v2: 3 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been reported in multiple individuals with Zellweger spectrum disorder and consistently classified as pathogenic by diagnostic laboratories in ClinVar (PMID: 19105186). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg872*) in the PEX1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031596, 26387595, 31831025). This variant is present in population databases (rs61750422, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with PEX1-related conditions (PMID: 12032265, 19105186, 21846392). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265395). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: PEX1 c.2614C>T (p.Arg872X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251050 control chromosomes. c.2614C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome with elevated VCLFA (very long chain fatty acid) levels (example, Preuss_2002, Yik_2009, Thoms_2011, Alshenaifi_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
