Genes affected

EMC1 (HGNC:28957): (ER membrane protein complex subunit 1) This gene encodes a single-pass type I transmembrane protein, which is a subunit of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex (EMC). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-19243708-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-19243708-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 972296.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EMC1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 3 of the EMC1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in EMC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 26572623, 26942288, 29271071). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 972296). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. -
