Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3
The NM_006279.5(ST3GAL3):c.23G>A(p.Arg8His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,868 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R8L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
ST3GAL3 (HGNC:10866): (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 3) The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to galactose-containing substrates. The encoded protein is normally found in the Golgi apparatus but can be proteolytically processed to a soluble form. This protein is a member of glycosyltransferase family 29. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of autosomal recessive nonsymdromic cognitive disability as well as infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 8 of the ST3GAL3 protein (p.Arg8His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ST3GAL3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436878). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
