Description

The homozygous p.Asn242Ser variant in TMEM67 was identified by our study in one individual with Joubert syndrome. The p.Asn242Ser variant in TMEM67 was reported in 23 individuals (including 22 Iranians) with Joubert syndrome, segregated with disease in 22 affected relatives from 9 families (PMID: 28719906, 19574260), and has been identified in 0.002978% (1/33580) of Latino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs775883520). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency and its prevalence in Iranian families with a shared haplotype suggests this is a founder variant (PMID: 28719906). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. This variant was also reported likely pathogenic in ClinVar prior to the publication of a paper about 22 Iranians from 9 families with this variant and Joubert syndrome (Variation ID: 216826). Two additional variants at the the same position, p.Asn242Thr and p.Asn242Lys, have been reported in association with disease in the literature, supporting that a change at this position may not be tolerated (PMID: 23559409, 19574260). Position 242 in the TMEM67 protein has also been reported as a glycosylation site for GlcNAc, providing additional support that a change in this position may not be tolerated (Entry: Q5HYA8) In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Joubert syndrome in an autosomal recessive manner based on the predicted impact of a change at position 242 in TMEM67 and cosegregation with Joubertssyndrome in multiple Iranian families. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PP3, PM5, PM1_Supporting, PP1_Strong (Richards 2015).
