Genes affected
WAS (HGNC:12731): (WASP actin nucleation promoting factor) The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) family of proteins share similar domain structure, and are involved in transduction of signals from receptors on the cell surface to the actin cytoskeleton. The presence of a number of different motifs suggests that they are regulated by a number of different stimuli, and interact with multiple proteins. Recent studies have demonstrated that these proteins, directly or indirectly, associate with the small GTPase, Cdc42, known to regulate formation of actin filaments, and the cytoskeletal organizing complex, Arp2/3. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a rare, inherited, X-linked, recessive disease characterized by immune dysregulation and microthrombocytopenia, and is caused by mutations in the WAS gene. The WAS gene product is a cytoplasmic protein, expressed exclusively in hematopoietic cells, which show signalling and cytoskeletal abnormalities in WAS patients. A transcript variant arising as a result of alternative promoter usage, and containing a different 5' UTR sequence, has been described, however, its full-length nature is not known.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCenter for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoSep 17, 2021WAS NM_000377.2 exon 2 p.Val75Met (c.223G>A): This variant has been reported in the literature in >10 individuals with X-linked thrombocytopenia (Kolluri 1995 PMID:8528198 (using alternate nomenclature c.257G>A), Albert 2010 PMID:20173115, Leblebisatan 2011 PMID:27264129). This variant is present in 1/12157 African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs782290433). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:265289). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In addition, functional studies have shown a deleterious effect of this variant (Albert 2010 PMID:20173115, Sarkar 2015 PMID:26261240). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 31, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 75 of the WAS protein (p.Val75Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs782290433, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT) (PMID: 8528198, 8528199, 8595430, 9326235, 11793485, 12969986, 15284122, 20173115, 21185603, 27264129, 28931895). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.257G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265289). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on WAS protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects WAS function (PMID: 19817875, 26261240). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 19, 2016The V75M missense variant in the WAS gene has been reported previously in association with WAS-related disorders (Albert et al., 2010; Kolluri et al., 1995). Please note, the Kolluri paper uses alternative cDNA nomenclature and indicates the position of the G>A nucleotide substitution at c.257. The V75M variant was not observed at any significant frequency in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This substitution occurs at a position within the WH1 domain that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Functional studies have shown that V75M causes a severe negative effect on WAS protein function by interfering with WAS SUMOylation (Sarkar et al., 2015). Missense variants in the same codon (V75L) and in nearby residues (C73R/Y, F74S, K76T, D77H/G) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with WAS-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, this variant is pathogenic. -
Thrombocytopenia 1 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 05, 2017Variant summary: The WAS c.223G>A (p.Val75Met) variant located in the WASP family, EVH1 domain (via InterPro) involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide and 3/4 in silico tools (SNPsandGO not captured here due to low reliability index) predict a damaging outcome. Functional studies, Rajmohan_2009 and Sarkar_2015, indicate that the varaint does impact WAS protein functionality. This variant was found in 1/80511 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000124, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic WAS variant (0.0035355). The variant of interest has been reported in multiple affected individuals diagnosed with X-linked thrombocytopenia. In addition, a clinical diagnostic laboratory classifies this variant as pathogenic. Furthermore, additional variants affecting the same amino acid, c.223G>T (p.V75L), and surrounding, c.221T>C (p.F74S), c.227A>C (p.K76T), and c.218G>A (p.C73Y), have all been reported and classified as pathogenic, suggesting the variant resides in a mutational hotspot. Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest has been classified as "pathogenic." -
