not provided Pathogenic:3
Variant affects the normal splice acceptor site in intron 4 and results in abnormal gene splicing by skipping exon 4 (Mousson et al., 2007); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29137425, 17073823, 34299348, 30665703, 32278775, 34099697, 34026460) -
This sequence change affects codon 197 of the DGUOK mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DGUOK protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs748597500, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (PMID: 17073823, 17452231, 18205204). 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: 214286). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 4, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 17073823). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

DGUOK-related disorder Pathogenic:2
Variant summary: DGUOK c.591G>A (p.Gln197Gln) alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site, and two predict the variant weakens this site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing, finding that it results in exon skipping (Mousson de Camaret_2007). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 251478 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.591G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DGUOK-Related Disorders (Mousson de Camaret_2007, Dimmock_2008, Sarzi_2007, Nesbitt), and some were reported as compound heterozygous with other pathogenic variants. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17073823, 18205204, 17452231, 24642831). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
The DGUOK c.591G>A is a noncoding alteration. This variant was reported in individuals with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (Mousson de Camaret et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17073823; Sarzi et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17452231; Dimmock et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18205204). Additional analysis of cDNA from the patient's fibroblasts determined that the c.591G>A variant leads to skipping of exon 4 (Supplementary Figure 2A, Mousson de Camaret et al 2007. PubMed ID: 17073823). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
