Genes affected
PEX26 (HGNC:22965): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 26) This gene belongs to the peroxin-26 gene family. It is probably required for protein import into peroxisomes. It anchors PEX1 and PEX6 to peroxisome membranes, possibly to form heteromeric AAA ATPase complexes required for the import of proteins into peroxisomes. Defects in this gene are the cause of peroxisome biogenesis disorder complementation group 8 (PBD-CG8). PBD refers to a group of peroxisomal disorders arising from a failure of protein import into the peroxisomal membrane or matrix. The PBD group is comprised of four disorders: Zellweger syndrome (ZWS), neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), infantile Refsum disease (IRD), and classical rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 7B;C3888385:Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 7A (Zellweger) Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 08, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu12Profs*103) in the PEX26 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX26 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12851857, 21031596). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Zellweger syndrome (PMID: 12851857). This variant is also known as T35insC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2154). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Peroxisome biogenesis disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 04, 2018Variant summary: PEX26 c.34dupC (p.Leu12ProfsX103) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.9e-05 in 206458 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.34dupC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome (Ebberink 2010, Matsumoto 2003). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Functional studies indicate the variant impedes peroxisomal localization, catalase import, stability and binding to the Pex6p and Pex1p proteins (Furuki 2006). Two ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
