Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points: 0P and 12B. BP4_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_002087.4(GRN):​c.970G>A​(p.Ala324Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00129 in 1,613,886 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A324V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
GRN (HGNC:4601): (granulin precursor) Granulins are a family of secreted, glycosylated peptides that are cleaved from a single precursor protein with 7.5 repeats of a highly conserved 12-cysteine granulin/epithelin motif. The 88 kDa precursor protein, progranulin, is also called proepithelin and PC cell-derived growth factor. Cleavage of the signal peptide produces mature granulin which can be further cleaved into a variety of active, 6 kDa peptides. These smaller cleavage products are named granulin A, granulin B, granulin C, etc. Epithelins 1 and 2 are synonymous with granulins A and B, respectively. Both the peptides and intact granulin protein regulate cell growth. However, different members of the granulin protein family may act as inhibitors, stimulators, or have dual actions on cell growth. Granulin family members are important in normal development, wound healing, and tumorigenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.022455513).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0011 (168/152200) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00171 (71/41498). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00139. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 79 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 3 AD,AR gene
