The variant received 12 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate

The NM_016628.5(WAC):c.112delA (p.Ser38AlafsTer154) variant causes a frameshift change. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★).

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.

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 points.

PVS1
Frameshift/stop-gained, NMD predicted, LoF disease mechanism — very strong (PVS1); Frameshift (exon 3 of 14) at amino acid 38 of 647, predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Loss of function is a known disease mechanism for this gene. A new stop codon is introduced in the shifted frame, truncating the protein to ~190 amino acids (457 amino acids lost).
PM2
Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD/XL) (threshold 0.0001) — PM2 moderate.
PP5
ClinVar 1-star pathogenic — moderate (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 1 star(s).
