Genes affected
PEX1 (HGNC:8850): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the AAA ATPase family, a large group of ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities. This protein is cytoplasmic but is often anchored to a peroxisomal membrane where it forms a heteromeric complex and plays a role in the import of proteins into peroxisomes and peroxisome biogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with complementation group 1 peroxisomal disorders such as neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, infantile Refsum disease, and Zellweger syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

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

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln261Argfs*8) in the PEX1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031596, 26387595, 31831025). This variant is present in population databases (rs749067142, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PMID: 19105186, 23247051). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188910). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The c.782_783delAA (p.Q261Rfs*8) alteration, located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the PEX1 gene, consists of a deletion of 2 nucleotides from position 782 to 783, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 8 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the c.782_783delAA allele has an overall frequency of 0.004% (9/249146) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.013% (4/30214) of South Asian alleles. This variant has been reported compound heterozygous with other PEX1 variants in individuals with features consistent with PEX1-related peroxisome biogenesis spectrum disorder (Yik, 2009; Sun, 2013; Lu, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

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

Variant summary: The variant, PEX1 c.782_783delAA (p.Gln261ArgfsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. c.2097dupT(p.Ile700fsX42), c.2916delA(p.Gly973fsX16)). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.7e-05 in 243912 control chromosomes (gnomAD) and has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Zellweger syndrome spectrum disorder (ZSS) and Zellweger Syndrome (Ebberink_2010, Yik_2009, Sun_2013) . These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
