Genes affected
POLR3A (HGNC:30074): (RNA polymerase III subunit A) The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic component of RNA polymerase III, which synthesizes small RNAs. The encoded protein also acts as a sensor to detect foreign DNA and trigger an innate immune response. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the POLR3A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 16 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.3065 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.6654 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to leukoencephalopathy-ataxia-hypodontia-hypomyelination syndrome, Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch syndrome, hypomyelination-hypogonadotropic hypogonadism-hypodontia syndrome, tremor-ataxia-central hypomyelination syndrome, hypomyelination-cerebellar atrophy-hypoplasia of the corpus callosum syndrome, odontoleukodystrophy.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.844
PP5
Variant 10-77980162-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-77980162-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 549570.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr10-77980162-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The p.Gly1335Arg variant in POLR3A has been reported in 1 individual with hypomyelinating leukodystrophy (PMID: 30323018), and has been identified in 0.003% (1/30616) of South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs768222183). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 549570) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by Tartaglia Lab (Genetics and Rare Diseases Research Division, Bambino Gesu' Children's Hospital) and pathogenic by OMIM. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. The p.Gly1335Arg variant is located in a region of POLR3A that is essential to protein folding and stability, suggesting that this variant is in a functional domain and slightly supports pathogenicity (PMID: 30323018). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM1_supporting, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -
