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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser226Trpfs*28) in the GRN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GRN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16862116, 16950801, 22608501). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with frontotemporal dementia (PMID: 16950801, 17698705, 20142524, 21482928, 26791154). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 98246). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
