Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 3P and 1B. PM2 PP2 BP4

The NM_005859.5(PURA):c.419G>C(p.Arg140Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000138 in 1,453,550 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R140R) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

PURA (HGNC:9701): (purine rich element binding protein A) This gene product is a sequence-specific, single-stranded DNA-binding protein. It binds preferentially to the single strand of the purine-rich element termed PUR, which is present at origins of replication and in gene flanking regions in a variety of eukaryotes from yeasts through humans. Thus, it is implicated in the control of both DNA replication and transcription. Deletion of this gene has been associated with myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myelogenous leukemia.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, PURA
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.36846817).

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 140 of the PURA protein (p.Arg140Pro). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 192343). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of PURA-related conditions (PMID: 29150892). -

The R140P variant in the PURA gene has been reported previously in an individual with PURA-related disorder, however parental segregation was not performed (Lee et al., 2017). The R140P variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R140P variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. In addition, R140P was observed in heterozygous state in a clinically unaffected relative of an individual referred for genetic testing at GeneDx. We interpret R140P as a variant of uncertain significance. -
