Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:2
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1490Argfs*19) in the MPDZ gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MPDZ are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23240096, 28556411). This variant is present in population databases (rs781251438, gnomAD 0.04%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive congenital hydrocephalus (PMID: 28556411). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548147). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28556411) -
Hydrocephalus, nonsyndromic, autosomal recessive 2 Pathogenic:2
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a likely mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with congenital hydrocephalus 2, with or without brain or eye anomalies (MIM#615219). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.01 for a recessive condition (23 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. These variants have been reported as pathogenic, and reported in multiple individuals with congenital hydrocephalus (DECIPHER, PMID: 28556411). (SP) 0803 - This variant has limited previous evidence of pathogenicity in an unrelated individual. This variant has been reported as pathogenic and observed in a homozygous individual with congenital hydrocephalus (ClinVar, PMID: 28556411). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
