Description

The variant, denoted as c.5059_5060delAA at cDNA level, is located in exon 27 of the PCNT gene. At protein level, it substitutes the Glutamine resulting a premature Stop codon at position 11 of the new reading frame. This frameshift predicted to cause non-sense mediated decay of mRNA leading to loss of PCNT protein. Bi-allelic loss of function in PCNT gene is a known mechanism of the disease MICROCEPHALIC OSTEODYSPLASTIC PRIMORDIAL DWARFISM, TYPE II(PMID:18174396 ). This variant is not found in global population frequency databases or in our internal exome database and found in trans with a pathogenic variant in an affected individual. Hence this variant is classified as a pathogenic variant according to the following ACMG guidelines. PVS1, PM2, PM3.
