Genes affected
PRX (HGNC:13797): (periaxin) This gene encodes a protein involved in peripheral nerve myelin upkeep. The encoded protein contains 2 PDZ domains which were named after PSD95 (post synaptic density protein), DlgA (Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor), and ZO1 (a mammalian tight junction protein). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene which encode different protein isoforms and which are targeted differently in the Schwann cell. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuoropathy, type 4F and Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics Laboratory, London Health Sciences Centre-- -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 23, 2024Variant summary: PRX c.922A>G (p.Thr308Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.7e-05 in 213330 control chromosomes. c.922A>G has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with features of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (Volodarsky_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with PRX-Related Disorders. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32376792). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242187). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 11, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported previously as a variant of uncertain significance in an individual with CMT (Volodarsky et al., 2021); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32376792) -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4F Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 12, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 03, 2022This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 308 of the PRX protein (p.Thr308Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs753330520, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 32376792). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242187). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
