Genes affected

RAB27A (HGNC:9766): (RAB27A, member RAS oncogene family) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Rab family. The protein is membrane-bound and may be involved in protein transport and small GTPase mediated signal transduction. Mutations in this gene are associated with Griscelli syndrome type 2. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and four transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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 15-55223888-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-55223888-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 582014.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Griscelli syndrome type 2 Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	literature only	OMIM	Jul 01, 2004	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 01, 2022	Variant summary: RAB27A c.467+1G>C is located in a canonical splice-site at the junction of the penultimate exon and the last intron, and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 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 4e-06 in 251162 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.467+1G>C has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous- and a compound heterozygous individuals affected with Griscelli Syndrome Type 2 (e.g. Menasche_2000, Sepulveda_2012, Bizario_2004, Gironi_2019, Blincoe_2020). In one of the compound heterozygous patients, who carried a nonsense variant in trans, a strong deficiency in CD8+ T cell cytotoxicity was demonstrated, which could be rescued by RAB27A gene transfer (Bizario_2004). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Nov 19, 2024	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the RAB27A gene. While this variant is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it likely alters RNA splicing and results in a disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Griscelli syndrome type 2 (PMID: 10835631, 15163896, 30104219, 30934652). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 582014). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
