Genes affected
TBCE (HGNC:11582): (tubulin folding cofactor E) Cofactor E is one of four proteins (cofactors A, D, E, and C) involved in the pathway leading to correctly folded beta-tubulin from folding intermediates. Cofactors A and D are believed to play a role in capturing and stabilizing beta-tubulin intermediates in a quasi-native confirmation. Cofactor E binds to the cofactor D/beta-tubulin complex; interaction with cofactor C then causes the release of beta-tubulin polypeptides that are committed to the native state. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: TBCE c.924delC (p.Leu309X) 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. A truncation downstream of this position is reported in HGMD and classified as pathogenic. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251488 control chromosomes. c.924delC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TBCE-Related Disorder (Sferra_2016, Battini_2021). These data indicate that the variant is associated with disease. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on mRNA and protein expression, which found the frameshift variant to be undetectable at the mRNA level, indicating nonsense-mediated RNA decay (Sferra_2016). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, classifying the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372200). This variant is also known as c.1076delC. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with progressive encephalopathy with amyotrophy and optic atrophy (PMID: 27666369, 34134906). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs750781063, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu309*) in the TBCE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TBCE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 27666369, 34134906, 34356170). -
