Description

In a consanguineous Italian kindred with arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATORS; 208050), the Sicilian family studied by Coucke et al. (2003) with 4 affected children in 2 sibships, Coucke et al. (2006) identified a homozygous frameshift mutation in the SLC2A10 gene, 1334delG (Gly445fsTer484), in affected individuals.

Callewaert et al. (2008) identified the 1334delG mutation in affected members of 4 European families with arterial tortuosity syndrome. Haplotype analysis suggested a founder effect. The authors noted that the mutation occurs in a highly conserved region in exon 3 and disrupts the endofacial loop between TMD10 and TMD11. In all patients, the mutation was in compound heterozygosity with another pathogenic SLC2A10 mutation (see, e.g., 606145.0005 and 606145.0006).

Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly445Glufs*40) in the SLC2A10 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC2A10 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17935213, 22488877, 23494979). This variant is present in population databases (rs758681965, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome (PMID: 16550171, 17935213, 19781076, 28726533). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4587). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

The SLC2A10 c.1334delG; p.Gly445GlufsTer40 variant (rs587776600) is reported in the literature in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with arterial tortuosity syndrome, and segregates with disease in at least one family (Callewaert 2008, Coucke 2006, Hardin 2018, Ritelli 2009). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 4587), and is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.015% (20/129188 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Functional analyses of patient cells demonstrate a lack of protein in homozygous patients and about half of wild type expression in heterozygotes (Coucke 2006). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Callewaert BL et al.

Description

Variant summary: SLC2A10 c.1334delG (p.Gly445GlufsX40) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 251486 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SLC2A10 causing Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome (8.4e-05 vs 0.0016), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1334delG has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous individuals affected with Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome (e.g. Coucke_2006, Piccinelli_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (e.g. Coucke_2006). The most pronounced variant effect results in severely reduced mRNA and protein expression in homozygous patient cells compared to unaffected controls. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16550171, 34847858). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Description

The p.Gly445GlufsX40 variant in SLC2A10 has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in at least 8 individuals with arterial tortuosity syndrome (1 homozygote, 7 compound heterozygotes, the majority of whom had a second disease causing variant in SLC210A; Coucke 2006 PMID: 16550171, Callewaert 2008 PMID: 17935213, Ritelli 2009 PMID: 19781076, Hardin 2018 PMID: 28726533). This variant segregated with disease in 7 affected relatives from 3 families (Coucke 2006 PMID: 16550171, Callewaert 2008 PMID: 17935213). This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 4587) and has been identified 0.019% (13/68030) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v3.1.2), which is consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. In vitro functional studies using of patient cells demonstrate a lack of protein in homozygous patients and about half of wild type expression in heterozygotes (Coucke 2006 PMID: 16550171), suggesting that this variant affects protein function. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 445 and leads to a premature termination codon 40 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Biallelic loss of function of the SLC2A10 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive arterial tortuosity syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive arterial tortuosity syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3_VeryStrong, PP1_Strong, PS3_Supporting.
