Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The WDR72 c.88C>T variant is classified as a LIKELY PATHOGENIC variant (PVS1, PM2) The variant is a single nucleotide change from a cytosine to a thymine at position 88 which is predicted to change the Arginine at position 30 in the protein to a premature STOP codon, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein (PVS1). The variant is in dbSNP (rs770804941) but its low frequency in population databases (gnomAD 7/282418, 0 homozygotes) is consistent with a recessive carrier frequency (PM2). The variant has been reported in the ClinVar as likely pathogenic (Variation ID: 517616), and in the HGMD as VUS (Accession#: CM190501). -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Arg30X variant (NM_182758.2 c.88C>T) in WDR72 has not been previously repo rted in the literature, but has been identified in 2/34392 of Latino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; d bSNP rs770804941). Although this variant has been seen in the general population , its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequenc y. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 30, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Biallelic loss of f unction of the WDR72 gene has been associated with amelogenesis imperfecta. In s ummary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Arg30X variant is likely pathogenic based on a predicted nu ll effect. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1; PM2 (Richards 2015). -
