Genes affected
PEX12 (HGNC:8854): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 12) This gene belongs to the peroxin-12 family. Peroxins (PEXs) are proteins that are essential for the assembly of functional peroxisomes. The peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive, lethal diseases characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. The peroxisomal biogenesis disorders are a heterogeneous group with at least 14 complementation groups and with more than 1 phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene are a cause of Zellweger syndrome (ZWS). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Variant summary: PEX12 c.368_370delTTC (p.Leu123del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one amino acid from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251230 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, described as p.Leu123del, has been reported in the literature in the heterozygous state (i.e. without an identified second variant) in at-least one individual, who was affected with mild clinical phenotype of the Zellweger Syndrome spectrum (Soliman_2018). Authors of this study also performed functional studies with patient derived fibroblasts and demonstrated both peroxisomal- and Zellweger-like cytoplasmic catalase localization, decreased cellular peroxisome number, and additional cellular alterations (Soliman_2018). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Zellweger Syndrome. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=3), likely pathogenic (n=1) and pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant, c.368_370del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the PEX12 protein (p.Leu123del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs751058068, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX12-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 377276). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
