Genes affected
AR (HGNC:644): (androgen receptor) The androgen receptor gene is more than 90 kb long and codes for a protein that has 3 major functional domains: the N-terminal domain, DNA-binding domain, and androgen-binding domain. The protein functions as a steroid-hormone activated transcription factor. Upon binding the hormone ligand, the receptor dissociates from accessory proteins, translocates into the nucleus, dimerizes, and then stimulates transcription of androgen responsive genes. This gene contains 2 polymorphic trinucleotide repeat segments that encode polyglutamine and polyglycine tracts in the N-terminal transactivation domain of its protein. Expansion of the polyglutamine tract from the normal 9-34 repeats to the pathogenic 38-62 repeats causes spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA, also known as Kennedy's disease). Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGMMay 20, 2023The observed missense variant c.1847G>A(p.Arg616His) in AR gene has been reported in individuals with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) and partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) (Cools M, et al., 2017, Gottlieb B, et al., 2012). Experimental studies demonstrate a damaging effect on androgen-responsive elements, decreased DNA binding and transactivation ability (Mowszowicz et al., 1993, Beitel et al., 1994).The c.1847G>A variant is reported with 0.001% allele frequency in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. The amino acid Arginine at position 616 is changed to a Histidine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Multiple lines of computational evidence (SIFT and Mutation Taster) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid change p.Arg616His in AR is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Androgen resistance syndrome;C1839259:Kennedy disease Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 10, 2022This variant is also known as R614H, R615H, and R606H. This missense change has been observed in individuals with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) (PMID: 8162033, 8413310, 8723113, 9698822, 11549642, 15531547, 24186138, 25613104). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs754201976, gnomAD 0.001%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 616 of the AR protein (p.Arg616His). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279684). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AR function (PMID: 8162033, 8413310, 11181525). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). -
