Genes affected
PIGN (HGNC:8967): (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class N) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This protein is expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum and transfers phosphoethanolamine (EtNP) to the first mannose of the GPI anchor. Two alternatively spliced variants, which encode an identical isoform, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: PIGN c.932T>G (p.Leu311Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the GPI ethanolamine phosphate transferase 1, N-terminal domain (IPR037671) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3e-05 in 201228 control chromosomes. c.932T>G has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with features of Multiple Congenital Anomalies-Hypotonia Syndrome 1 (PIGN-encephalopathy) (example, Jezela-Stanek_2016, Pagnamenta_2017, Angione_2019, Powis_2020, Pronicka_2016, Bayat_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30660939, 35179230, 26879448, 28327575, 31628766, 27290639, 31440721). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic (n=7)/likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 311 of the PIGN protein (p.Leu311Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs746882521, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with multiple congenital anomalies-hypotonia-seizures syndrome (MCAHS) (PMID: 28327575). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 426983). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PIGN protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PIGN function (PMID: 28327575). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate that this variant results in significantly reduced enzymatic activity (Pagnamenta et al., 2017); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26879448, 27290639, 27038415, 28327575, 30660939, 32585529, 31589614, 33619735, 35179230) -

The p.L311W variant (also known as c.932T>G), located in coding exon 8 of the PIGN gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 932. The leucine at codon 311 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individual who had seizures, developmental delay, brain atrophy, and dysmorphic features and was compound heterozygous with another alteration p.G264R (Jezela-Stanek A et al. Eur. J. Paediatr. Neurol., 2016 May;20:462-73). This alteration was also identified in a different individual with cognitive impairment, seizures, extrapyramidal dyskinesia, dysmorphic features, and brain atrophy in the compound heterozygous state with the p.K232*. In addition, functional studies suggest decreased enzymatic activity and reduced expression of GPI-APs in patient granulocytes (Pagnamenta AT et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2017 06;25:669-679; Jezela-Stanek A et al. Eur. J. Paediatr. Neurol., 2016 May;20:462-73). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
