Description
This variant disrupts the p.Ile153 amino acid residue in PMM2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11058895, 11156536, 25497157, 26502900). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 153 of the PMM2 protein (p.Ile153Arg). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PMM2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1422606). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PMM2 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
