Genes affected
TMEM67 (HGNC:28396): (transmembrane protein 67) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the primary cilium and to the plasma membrane. The gene functions in centriole migration to the apical membrane and formation of the primary cilium. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Meckel syndrome type 3 (MKS3) and Joubert syndrome type 6 (JBTS6). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 20, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu452Lysfs*4) in the TMEM67 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TMEM67 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20232449, 23559409). This variant is present in population databases (rs749435317, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nephronophthisis (PMID: 27491411). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225493). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
