Genes affected
SLC6A3 (HGNC:11049): (solute carrier family 6 member 3) This gene encodes a dopamine transporter which is a member of the sodium- and chloride-dependent neurotransmitter transporter family. The 3' UTR of this gene contains a 40 bp tandem repeat, referred to as a variable number tandem repeat or VNTR, which can be present in 3 to 11 copies. Variation in the number of repeats is associated with idiopathic epilepsy, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, dependence on alcohol and cocaine, susceptibility to Parkinson disease and protection against nicotine dependence.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000046 (7/152288) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.00136 (7/5162). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000636. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 2 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.

Submissions by phenotype

Parkinsonism-dystonia, infantile Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJun 20, 2022This sequence change falls in intron 13 of the SLC6A3 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC6A3 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs781468421, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLC6A3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 538068). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
