Description

In 7 affected members of 2 Saudi families with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome (WDSKS; 241080), including 1 of the original families described by Woodhouse and Sakati (1983), Alazami et al. (2008) identified homozygosity for a 1-bp deletion (436delC) in exon 4 of the DCAF17 gene, predicted to cause a frameshift in the beta-isoform of the protein and result in premature termination. The authors stated that in the alpha-isoform, the 1-bp deletion was predicted to lie in the 5-prime UTR and was unlikely to be pathogenic. The mutation was subsequently identified in 6 additional Saudi families with the disorder, but not in 274 Saudi control chromosomes. SNP-based haplotype analysis confirmed a founder effect, and the deletion likely arose approximately 55 generations earlier.

Description

This variant has been previously reported as disease-causing and was found once in our laboratory homozygous in a 23-year-old male with diabetes, dystonia, coordination difficulties, thumb stiffening, ulnar deviation of the hand, hypernasal voice, hypothyroidism, hypogonadism, chronic facial and extremity edema and erythema, similarly affected sib (not tested). Variant pathogenic in recessive state; heterozygotes are carriers.

Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala147Hisfs*9) in the DCAF17 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DCAF17 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19026396, 20507343). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome (PMID: 19026396, 24015686, 26664771). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 209146). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
