Genes affected
PEX2 (HGNC:9717): (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 2) This gene encodes an integral peroxisomal membrane protein required for peroxisome biogenesis. The protein is thought to be involved in peroxisomal matrix protein import. Mutations in this gene result in one form of Zellweger syndrome and infantile Refsum disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 08, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg114*) in the PEX2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 192 amino acid(s) of the PEX2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs764771123, gnomAD 0.008%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Zellweger syndrome (PMID: 21031596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 287499). This variant disrupts a region of the PEX2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg119*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1546315, 9452066, 9585609, 10528859). 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 28, 2017Variant summary: The PEX2 c.339_345delCAGGTGG (p.Arg114fs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent PEX2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. LCA has classified another downstream truncation variant, c.355C>T (p.Arg119X) as pathogenic. This variant was found in 3/121458 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000247, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic PEX2 variant (0.001118). A publication has cited the variant in two individuals, one homozygous and one assumed compound heterozygous, diagnosed with ZS (Ebberink_2010). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as "likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as "Pathogenic." -
