Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_024757.5(EHMT1):​c.2877_2880delTTCT​(p.Ser960GlyfsTer7) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L959L) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

EHMT1 (HGNC:24650): (euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates the lysine-9 position of histone H3. This action marks the genomic region packaged with these methylated histones for transcriptional repression. This protein may be involved in the silencing of MYC- and E2F-responsive genes and therefore could play a role in the G0/G1 cell cycle transition. Defects in this gene are a cause of chromosome 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome (9q-syndrome, also known as Kleefstra syndrome). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. It is predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: VCV000065734/ PMID: 22670141). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser960Glyfs*7) in the EHMT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in EHMT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16826528, 19264732). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Kleefstra syndrome (PMID: 22670141). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65734). 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. -
