Genes affected
GALNT3 (HGNC:4125): (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3) This gene encodes UDP-GalNAc transferase 3, a member of the GalNAc-transferases family. This family transfers an N-acetyl galactosamine to the hydroxyl group of a serine or threonine residue in the first step of O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis. Individual GalNAc-transferases have distinct activities and initiation of O-glycosylation is regulated by a repertoire of GalNAc-transferases. The protein encoded by this gene is highly homologous to other family members, however the enzymes have different substrate specificities. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.090431124 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.6, offset of 48, new splice context is: cctcccctgcccaccaccAGtgt. Cryptic site results in inframe change.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the GALNT3 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 GALNT3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15133511, 20358599). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.04%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with tumoral calcinosis (PMID: 15687324, 27164190). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as IVS1-2a>t. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7794). 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 09, 2016The c.516-2A>T pathogenic variant in the GALNT3 gene has been reported previously in the homozygous state or in trans with another pathogenic variant in multiple affected individuals with familial tumoral calcinosis (Ichikawa et al., 2005; Laleye et al., 2008). This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 2. RT-PCR analysis of patient-derived fibroblasts demonstrates this variant results in skipping of exon two, producing a frameshift in exon 3 and subsequent protein truncation (Laleye et al., 2008). The c.516-2A>T variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.516-2A>T as a pathogenic variant. -
