Genes affected

MKS1 (HGNC:7121): (MKS transition zone complex subunit 1) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the basal body and is required for formation of the primary cilium in ciliated epithelial cells. Mutations in this gene result in Meckel syndrome type 1 and in Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 13. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Variant summary: MKS1 c.1411dupG (p.Glu471GlyfsX120) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.5e-05 in 247054 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MKS1 causing Meckel Syndrome Type 1 (6.5e-05 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1411dupG has been observed in individual(s) affected with Meckel Syndrome Type 1 (Qin_2023). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Meckel Syndrome Type 1. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A downstream extension variant with the same reading frame has been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (c.1450_1453dup, p.Thr485Argfs*107) providing evidence that the extension is likely to affect protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37880672, 38039006). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435876). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the MKS1 gene (p.Glu471Glyfs*120). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 89 amino acid(s) of the MKS1 protein and extend the protein by 30 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs762668200, gnomAD 0.09%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MKS1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435876). This variant results in an extension of the MKS1 protein. Other variant(s) that result in a similarly extended protein product (p.Thr485Argfs*107) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17185389, 17397051). This suggests that these extensions are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
