Genes affected

TMEM67 (HGNC:28396): (transmembrane protein 67) The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the primary cilium and to the plasma membrane. The gene functions in centriole migration to the apical membrane and formation of the primary cilium. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Meckel syndrome type 3 (MKS3) and Joubert syndrome type 6 (JBTS6). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_153704.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.927
• PP5: Variant 8-93815365-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-93815365-T-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 217722.

Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with Joubert syndrome and an individual with COACH syndrome with a second TMEM67 variant, but it is not known whether the variants occurred on the same (in cis) or on different (in trans) chromosomes (Bachmann-Gagescu et al., 2015; Doherty et al., 2010); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32000717, 26092869, 19574260) -
