Genes affected

PYCR1 (HGNC:9721): (pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1) This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the NAD(P)H-dependent conversion of pyrroline-5-carboxylate to proline. This enzyme may also play a physiologic role in the generation of NADP(+) in some cell types. The protein forms a homopolymer and localizes to the mitochondrion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 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 17-81936122-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-81936122-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 521586.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: PYCR1 c.138+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing and loss of PYCR1 function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 250792 control chromosomes. c.138+1G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cutis laxa with progeroid features (examples, Dimopoulou_2013, Reversade_2009). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24035636, 19648921). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 521586). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
