Genes affected
TKT (HGNC:11834): (transketolase) This gene encodes a thiamine-dependent enzyme which plays a role in the channeling of excess sugar phosphates to glycolysis in the pentose phosphate pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 30, 2021This 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. -
