Genes affected
PEX12 (HGNC:8854): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 12) This gene belongs to the peroxin-12 family. Peroxins (PEXs) are proteins that are essential for the assembly of functional peroxisomes. The peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive, lethal diseases characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. The peroxisomal biogenesis disorders are a heterogeneous group with at least 14 complementation groups and with more than 1 phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene are a cause of Zellweger syndrome (ZWS). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 3A (Zellweger) Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 12, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln337*) in the PEX12 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 23 amino acid(s) of the PEX12 protein. 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 variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX12-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451464). This variant disrupts a region of the PEX12 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Gln349del) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15542397, 21031596; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
