Genes affected

GPC3 (HGNC:4451): (glypican 3) Cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans are composed of a membrane-associated protein core substituted with a variable number of heparan sulfate chains. Members of the glypican-related integral membrane proteoglycan family (GRIPS) contain a core protein anchored to the cytoplasmic membrane via a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol linkage. These proteins may play a role in the control of cell division and growth regulation. The protein encoded by this gene can bind to and inhibit the dipeptidyl peptidase activity of CD26, and it can induce apoptosis in certain cell types. Deletion mutations in this gene are associated with Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome, also known as Simpson dysmorphia syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The GPC3 variant, c.1626A>G (p.Ala542Ala) causes a synonymous change involving a non-conserved nucleotide with 5/5 in silico tools via Alamut predicting no significant effect on splicing, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 1792/87714 (1/48, 141 homozygotes, 396 hemizygotes), which significantly exceeds the estimated maxium expected allele frequency for a pathogenic GPC3 variant of 1/10000000. The variant of interest, to our knowledge, has not been reported in affected individuals via publications. A reputable clinical laboratory cites the variant as "benign." Therefore, the variant of interest is classified as Benign. -

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
