Genes affected
WAC (HGNC:17327): (WW domain containing adaptor with coiled-coil) The protein encoded by this gene contains a WW domain, which is a protein module found in a wide range of signaling proteins. This domain mediates protein-protein interactions and binds proteins containing short linear peptide motifs that are proline-rich or contain at least one proline. This gene product shares 94% sequence identity with the WAC protein in mouse, however, its exact function is not known. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu88Glyfs*103) in the WAC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in WAC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 26264232, 26757981). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with WAC-related conditions (PMID: 25356899). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 219139). -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.263_266delAGAG (p.E88Gfs*103) alteration, located in coding exon 3 of the WAC gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides from position 263 to 266, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 103 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration was reported de novo in a 30 year old female with moderate intellectual disability, short 5th metacarpals, and minor dysmorphic features (Hamdan, 2014). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
