Genes affected
GPC3 (HGNC:4451): (glypican 3) Cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans are composed of a membrane-associated protein core substituted with a variable number of heparan sulfate chains. Members of the glypican-related integral membrane proteoglycan family (GRIPS) contain a core protein anchored to the cytoplasmic membrane via a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol linkage. These proteins may play a role in the control of cell division and growth regulation. The protein encoded by this gene can bind to and inhibit the dipeptidyl peptidase activity of CD26, and it can induce apoptosis in certain cell types. Deletion mutations in this gene are associated with Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome, also known as Simpson dysmorphia syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

not specified Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 19, 2018Variant summary: GPC3 c.995A>G (p.Gln332Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 200296 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0023 within the African subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately significantly higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in GPC3 causing Wilms Tumor, Type 1 phenotype (6.3e-08), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.995A>G in individuals affected with Wilms Tumor, Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
Inborn genetic diseases Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 22, 2020This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
