Description

Variant summary: PEX6 c.2362G>A (p.Val788Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ATPase, AAA-type, core domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant is the last exonic nucleotide at an exon-intron junction, suggesting it may affect splicing. At least one publication, Matsumoto_2001, reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251656 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.2362G>A, has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome, both as a homozygous and compound heterozygous allele. (Steinberg_2004, Krause_2009, Ebberink_2010, Lusebrink_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Lusebrink_2016). One ClinVar submission from other clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Description

This sequence change replaces valine with methionine at codon 788 of the PEX6 protein (p.Val788Met). The valine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and methionine. RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy or Zellweger syndrome (PMID: 3515938, 19142205, 19877282, 26700162). This variant is also known as PEX6del2095–2362/21ins. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556244). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change results in skipping of exons 11 and 12 and an insertion of 21 nucleotides, which introduces a frameshift and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 11355018). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. 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.
