Genes affected
PEX1 (HGNC:8850): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the AAA ATPase family, a large group of ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities. This protein is cytoplasmic but is often anchored to a peroxisomal membrane where it forms a heteromeric complex and plays a role in the import of proteins into peroxisomes and peroxisome biogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with complementation group 1 peroxisomal disorders such as neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, infantile Refsum disease, and Zellweger syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 31, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the PEX1 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 PEX1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031596, 26387595, 31831025). This variant is present in population databases (rs756876301, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with peroxisomal biogenesis disorder (PMID: 19105186, 26387595). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217430). 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. -

This variant has been reported in multiple patients with peroxisomal biogenesis disorders, including Zellweger syndrome and Heimler syndrome (referred to as c.1240+1G>T in Yik et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19105186; Ebberink et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21031596; Ratbi et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26387595; Gao et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31831025). This variant is reported in 0.0058% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-92146589-C-A). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in PEX1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 19, 2021Variant summary: PEX1 c.1239+1G>T 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. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 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 251132 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1239+1G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome Spectrum disorders (e.g. Yik_2009, Ebberink_2011, Ratbi_2015). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
