NM_000349.2(STAR):c.64+1G>T is a canonical splice variant classified as pathogenic in the context of lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia. c.64+1G>T has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 23859637). Functional assessments of this variant are available in the literature (PMID: 14764819). c.64+1G>T has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: AMR 0.04%). In summary, NM_000349.2(STAR):c.64+1G>T is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
not provided Pathogenic:2
This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 1 of the STAR 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 STAR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8948562). This variant is present in population databases (rs765968701, gnomAD 0.04%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (PMID: 14764819). This variant is also known as IVS+1G>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550998). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 14764819). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect with this variant resulting in protein truncation (Gonzalez et al., 2004); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 14764819) -
STAR-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The STAR c.64+1G>T variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant in the homozygous condition has been reported in one individual with congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (Gonzalez et al 2004. PubMed ID: 14764819). RNA and functional studies suggest that this variant led to abnormal RNA splicing and disrupted the normal protein function (Gonzalez et al 2004. PubMed ID: 14764819). In addition, similar splicing variants (c.64+1G>C; c.64+1G>A) were reported to be pathogenic for 46,XY disorder of sex development/ congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (Baxter. 2015. PubMed ID: 25383892; Zhang. 2021. PubMed ID: 33227378). This variant is reported in 0.043% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in STAR are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
