Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM4PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001064.4(TKT):c.769_770insCTACCTCCTTATCTTCTG(p.Trp257delinsSerThrSerLeuSerSerGly) variant causes a conservative inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000682 in 1,613,930 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★).

This variant, c.769_770insCTACCTCCTTATCTTCTG, is a complex sequence change that results in the deletion of 1 and insertion of 7 amino acid(s) in the TKT protein (p.Trp257delinsSerThrSerLeuSerSerGly). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with transketolase deficiency (PMID: 27259054). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 243092). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect with no residual transketolase enzyme activity (PMID: 27259054); In-frame deletion of 1 amino acid and insertion of 7 amino acids in a non-repeat region; In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27259054, 32828637, 36978159) -
