Genes affected

CASK (HGNC:1497): (calcium/calmodulin dependent serine protein kinase) This gene encodes a calcium/calmodulin-dependent serine protein kinase. The encoded protein is a MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) protein family member. These proteins are scaffold proteins and the encoded protein is located at synapses in the brain. Mutations in this gene are associated with FG syndrome 4, intellectual disability and microcephaly with pontine and cerebellar hypoplasia, and a form of X-linked intellectual disability. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant X-41555605-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-41555605-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 418109.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chrX-41555605-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg613*) in the CASK gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CASK are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19165920, 20029458, 21954287, 22452838, 22709267). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CASK-related conditions (PMID: 27652284, 29878067). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is also known as c.1768C>T (p.R584Ter). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418109). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
