Genes affected

FIG4 (HGNC:16873): (FIG4 phosphoinositide 5-phosphatase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SAC domain-containing protein gene family. The SAC domain, approximately 400 amino acids in length and consisting of seven conserved motifs, has been shown to possess phosphoinositide phosphatase activity. The yeast homolog, Sac1p, is involved in the regulation of various phosphoinositides, and affects diverse cellular functions such as actin cytoskeleton organization, Golgi function, and maintenance of vacuole morphology. Membrane-bound phosphoinositides function as signaling molecules and play a key role in vesicle trafficking in eukaryotic cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type 4J. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.831_838delTAAATTTG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the FIG4 gene, results from a deletion of 8 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 831 to 838, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K278Wfs*6). This alteration has been detected in trans with other FIG4 mutations in multiple unrelated individuals with Charcot Marie Tooth disease type 4J (CMT4J) (Campeau PM et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2013 May;92:781-91; Nicholson G et al. Brain, 2011 Jul;134:1959-71; Cottenie E et al. Neuromuscul Disord, 2013 May;23:399-403; Hu B et al. Ann Neurol, 2018 04;83:756-770). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys278Trpfs*6) in the FIG4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FIG4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23623387, 30740813). This variant is present in population databases (rs752684668, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with FIG4-related disease (PMID: 21705420, 23489662, 23623387). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 50995). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
