Genes affected

HERC1 (HGNC:4867): (HECT and RLD domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase family member 1) This gen encodes a member of the HERC protein family. This protein stimulates guanine nucleotide exchange on ARF1 and Rab proteins. This protein may be involved in membrane transport processes. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.014808721 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.4, offset of 10, new splice context is: tttcctcacgcttcgtttAGagg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 15-63696341-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-63696341-T-G is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 208859.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
