Genes affected
PEX5 (HGNC:9719): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5) The product of this gene binds to the C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type) and plays an essential role in peroxisomal protein import. Peroxins (PEXs) are proteins that are essential for the assembly of functional peroxisomes. The peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive, lethal diseases characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. The peroxisomal biogenesis disorders are a heterogeneous group with at least 14 complementation groups and with more than 1 phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene are a cause of neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), a cause of Zellweger syndrome (ZWS) as well as may be a cause of infantile Refsum disease (IRD). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2B Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 28, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg427*) in the PEX5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18712838, 21031596). This variant is present in population databases (rs61752137, gnomAD 0.008%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Zellweger syndrome (PMID: 7719337). This variant is also known as Arg390Ter. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9144). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 01, 2015The R427X variant in the PEX5 gene has been reported previously in association with peroxisomebiogenesis disorder by characterizing cell lines from affected patients at a biochemical and genetic level.Two different functional studies performed on fibroblast cell lines derived from patients with a PEX5-related disorder demonstrated that R427X caused a defect in the import of either peroxisomal targetingsequence type 1 (PTS1) or type 2 (PTS2) into peroxisomes (Ebberink et al., 2009; Dodt et al., 1995). Thisvariant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The R427X variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret R427X as a pathogenic variant. -
