Genes affected
EXOSC3 (HGNC:17944): (exosome component 3) This gene encodes a non-catalytic component of the human exosome, a complex with 3'-5' exoribonuclease activity that plays a role in numerous RNA processing and degradation activities. Related pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosome 19 and 21. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro52Argfs*2) in the EXOSC3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in EXOSC3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22544365, 23284067, 24524299). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with pontocerebellar hypoplasia (PMID: 23284067). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280004). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

Variant summary: EXOSC3 c.155delC (p.Pro52ArgfsX2) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar and are associated with Pontocerebellar hypoplasia 1 in HGMD. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.6e-06 in 231252 control chromosomes. c.155delC has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia, Type 1B and segregated with disease within families (e.g. Rudnik-Schoneborn_2013, Mu_2020, Spyridakis_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
