Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001008537.3(NEXMIF):​c.652C>T​(p.Arg218*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R218R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28135719, 29693785, 27568816, 27358180, 33504798, 33144681, 31785789) -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg218*) in the NEXMIF gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NEXMIF are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23615299). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with seizures and intellectual disability (PMID: 27358180, 29693785). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242323). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.652C>T (p.R218*) alteration, located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the KIAA2022 gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 652. This changes the amino acid from a arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 218. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant was reported in multiple females and at least one male with features consistent with NEXMIF-related neurodevelopmental disorder; in at least one individual, it was determined to be a de novo variant (de Lange, 2016; Lorenzo, 2018; Stamberger, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
