Genes affected
BCS1L (HGNC:1020): (BCS1 homolog, ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex chaperone) This gene encodes a homolog of the S. cerevisiae bcs1 protein which is involved in the assembly of complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The encoded protein does not contain a mitochondrial targeting sequence but experimental studies confirm that it is imported into mitochondria. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial complex III deficiency and the GRACILE syndrome. Several alternatively spliced transcripts encoding two different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 30, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro274Argfs*26) in the BCS1L gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BCS1L are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12215968, 17314340, 19162478, 19508421, 22277166, 25895478). This variant is present in population databases (rs768595326, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Bjornstad syndrome (PMID: 28105683). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555982). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
