(2017) identified a homozygous 3-bp deletion in the promoter region of the UFM1 gene (c.-273_-271delTCA, NM_001286704.1). The mutation, which was found by a combination of homozygosity mapping and whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, segregated with the disorder in the families. Most of the patients were of Roma descent, and haplotype analysis indicated a founder effect. Screening of 670 Roma controls revealed 30 mutation carriers, yielding a carrier rate of 4.5% for the allele; 1 individual was homozygous for the mutation, but retrospective studies indicated that he was affected. Carrier rate in the specific community where the homozygous individual was from showed a carrier rate of about 25%. In vitro functional expression studies using a luciferase reporter in different cell lines showed that the mutation significantly reduced promoter and transcriptional activity in certain neuronal cell lines (SY5Y and U373), but not in other cell lines (HeLa and HOF-F2).

Comment:

This variant is located in the promoter region of UFM1 and has been previously reported as a homozygous change in sixteen patients with hypomyelination with atrophy of the basal ganglia and cerebellum (PMID: 28931644). Most of the patients were from Roma population, and the carrier frequency was as high as 25% in Eastern Slovakia (PMID: 28931644), suggesting a founder effect. In-vitro functional studies using a luciferase assay showed that this variant leads to reduced promoter activity in CNS-derived cell lines (PMID: 28931644). It is absent from the gnomAD population database and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, the c.-273_-271delTCA variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
