Genes affected
KMT2D (HGNC:7133): (lysine methyltransferase 2D) The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates the Lys-4 position of histone H3. The encoded protein is part of a large protein complex called ASCOM, which has been shown to be a transcriptional regulator of the beta-globin and estrogen receptor genes. Mutations in this gene have been shown to be a cause of Kabuki syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant (PVS1_VS). The variant was observed as assumed (i.e. paternity and maternity not confirmed) de novoo (3billion dataset, PM6). It is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (PM2). The variant has been reported as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: VCV000167218.5). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 167218). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Kabuki syndrome (PMID: 22126750). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg5086*) in the KMT2D gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in KMT2D are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22126750). -
