Genes affected

CHKB (HGNC:1938): (choline kinase beta) Choline kinase (CK) and ethanolamine kinase (EK) catalyze the phosphorylation of choline/ethanolamine to phosphocholine/phosphoethanolamine. This is the first enzyme in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine in all animal cells. The highly purified CKs from mammalian sources and their recombinant gene products have been shown to have EK activity also, indicating that both activities reside on the same protein. The choline kinase-like protein encoded by CHKL belongs to the choline/ethanolamine kinase family; however, its exact function is not known. Read-through transcripts are expressed from this locus that include exons from the downstream CPT1B locus. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

Megaconial type congenital muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1 Uncertain:1

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Feb 09, 2021	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in alternate splicing of exon 9, which introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 25740612). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with congenital muscular dystrophy (PMID: 25740612, 25326635, Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 560978). This variant is present in population databases (rs751176079, ExAC 0.02%). This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the CHKB gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CHKB protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Sep 01, 2017	Likely pathogenicity based on finding it once in our laboratory in a homozygous state in a 13-year-old male with developmental delay, hypotonia, myopathy, speech delay, memory problems. This change, which occurred at the +3 position at the exon/intron junction, might affect mRNA splicing based on in silico predictions. -
