Genes affected

LIG4 (HGNC:6601): (DNA ligase 4) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA ligase that joins single-strand breaks in a double-stranded polydeoxynucleotide in an ATP-dependent reaction. This protein is essential for V(D)J recombination and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair through nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). This protein forms a complex with the X-ray repair cross complementing protein 4 (XRCC4), and further interacts with the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK). Both XRCC4 and DNA-PK are known to be required for NHEJ. The crystal structure of the complex formed by this protein and XRCC4 has been resolved. Defects in this gene are the cause of LIG4 syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile864Metfs*25) in the LIG4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 48 amino acid(s) of the LIG4 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs765317127, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LIG4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 452857). This variant disrupts a region of the LIG4 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Gln904*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 34630384). 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. -

The c.2592_2595delAATT variant in the LIG4 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Isoleucine 864, changes this amino acid to a Methionine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 25 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Ile864MetfsX25. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. The c.2592_2595delAATT variant is observed in 5/111,658 alleles (0.0045%) from individuals of non-Finnish European ancestry in the gnomAD dataset (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret c.2592_2595delAATT as a variant of uncertain significance. -
