Genes affected
GDF5 (HGNC:4220): (growth differentiation factor 5) This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein regulates the development of numerous tissue and cell types, including cartilage, joints, brown fat, teeth, and the growth of neuronal axons and dendrites. Mutations in this gene are associated with acromesomelic dysplasia, brachydactyly, chondrodysplasia, multiple synostoses syndrome, proximal symphalangism, and susceptibility to osteoarthritis.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg301*) in the GDF5 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 201 amino acid(s) of the GDF5 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with brachydactyly (PMID: 9288091). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8378). This variant disrupts a region of the GDF5 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg380Gln) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18203755). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
