Genes affected

KIF14 (HGNC:19181): (kinesin family member 14) This gene encodes a member of the kinesin-3 superfamily of microtubule motor proteins. These proteins are involved in numerous processes including vesicle transport, chromosome segregation, mitotic spindle formation, and cytokinesis. In human HeLa-S3 and 293T cells, this protein is localized to the cytoplasm during interphase, to the spindle poles and spindle microtubules during mitosis, and to the midbody during cytokinesis. An internal motor domain displays microtubule-dependent ATPase activity, consistent with its function as a microtubule motor protein. Knockdown of this gene results in failed cytokinesis with endoreplication, which results in multinucleated cells. This gene has been identified as a likely oncogene in breast, lung and ovarian cancers, as well as retinoblastomas and gliomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

The c.3114+3A>C variant in the KIF14 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to damage or destroy the splice donor site in intron 18, and is expected to cause abnormal gene splicing. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change in this individual is unknown. The c.3114+3A>C variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). We interpret c.3114+3A>C as a variant of uncertain significance. -

This 4 year old male has a history of global developmental delay, microcephaly, autism spectrum disorder, dysmorphic features, and hearing impairment. The patient is compound heterozygous for variants in KIF14. The variant is present at a frequency of 0.018% in the South Asian population in ExAC and gnomAD. Computational models predict this variant to damage or destroy the splice donor site in intron 18 and result in abnormal gene splicing. Homozygous and compound heterozygous pathogenic variants have been reported in individuals with autosomal recessive Meckel syndrome 12, clinical features of which include intrauterine growth restriction, microcephaly, cerebellar hypoplasia, renal agenesis/hypoplasia, ureteral hypoplasia, uterine hypoplasia, and flexion arthrogryposis (Filges et al. 2014). -

The observed splice region c.3114+3A>C variant in KIF14 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor a benign variant, to our knowledge. The c.3114+3A>C variant has been reported with allele frequency of 0.002% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Significance. SpliceAI predicts this variant to cause splice donor loss (0.94). Additional functional studies will be required to prove the pathogenicity of this variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). In absence of another reportable variant in KIF14 gene, the molecular diagnosis is not confirmed. -
