Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate

The NM_015166.4(MLC1):​c.135delC​(p.Cys46AlafsTer12) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-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. P45P) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected
MLC1 (HGNC:17082): (modulator of VRAC current 1) The function of this gene product is unknown; however, homology to other proteins suggests that it may be an integral membrane transporter. Mutations in this gene have been associated with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts, an autosomal recessive neurological disorder. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys46Alafs*12) in the MLC1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MLC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11254442, 16470554, 24824219). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (PMID: 25497041, 28588848, 28840990). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
