Genes affected

TMEM67 (HGNC:28396): (transmembrane protein 67) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the primary cilium and to the plasma membrane. The gene functions in centriole migration to the apical membrane and formation of the primary cilium. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Meckel syndrome type 3 (MKS3) and Joubert syndrome type 6 (JBTS6). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

The heterozygous variant c.514C>T (p.Arg172*) has been identified on couple carrier screening. The couple has a bad obstetric history. This variant can be associated with the fetal phenotype of renal cysts and occipital encephalocele in the previous fetus. This stop gain variant is predicted to cause NMD in the gene TMEM67 where loss of function is a known mechanism (PVS1_very strong). 86 pathogenic null variants have been reported in this gene so far. The population frequency in gnomAD (aggregated) is 0.0011% (PM2_moderate). This has been previously reported PMID 26729329 (PP5_supporting). -

This variant is present in population databases (rs765468645, gnomAD 0.004%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg172*) in the TMEM67 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TMEM67 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20232449, 23559409). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Meckel-Gruber syndrome (PMID: 26729329). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 506012). -

The p.Arg91X (NM_001142301.1 c.271C>T) (also described as NM_153704.5:c.514C>T p .Arg172X) variant in TMEM67 has been reported in 1 compound heterozygous individ ual with Meckel syndrome (Matson 2016). It has been identified in 1/24020 Africa n chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.o rg; rs765468645). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon a t position 91, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Bial lelic loss of function of the TMEM67 gene is an established disease mechanism in Meckel syndrome. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or ab sent protein. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully esta blish its clinical significance, the p.Arg91X variant is likely pathogenic for M eckel syndrome in an autosomal recessive manner based on a predicted variant eff ect and its occurrence in an affected individual. -
