Compound Heterozygous Factor VII Deficiency c.1025G>A p.(Arg342Gln) With Novel Missense Variant c.194C>G p.(Ala65Gly).

ABSTRACT: Factor VII (FVII) deficiency manifests as prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and reduced FVII activity. We report a case of an asymptomatic 60-year-old gentleman with discrepancies in PT and FVII coagulant activity levels (FVII:C) on three different thromboplastin reagents used. Further sequence analysis on genomic DNA showed double heterozygosity for c.1025G>A p.Arg342Gln and c.194C>G p.Ala65Gly in the F7 gene. To date, p.Ala65Gly in exon 2 of the F7 gene represents a novel variant in patients with FVII deficiency and is classified as likely pathogenic. Computational prediction tools support a deleterious effect on the gene. The genotype-phenotype association and the clinical significance of this exon 2 missense variant is proposed in this case report.

Project description:BackgroundAsparagine synthetase deficiency (ASNSD) is a rare pediatric congenital disorder that clinically manifests into severe progressive microcephaly, global developmental delay, spastic quadriplegia, and refractory seizures. ASNSD is caused by inheritable autosomal recessive mutations in the asparagine synthetase (ASNS) gene.MethodsWe performed whole-exome sequencing using the patient's peripheral blood, and newly discovered mutations were subsequently verified in the patient's parents via Sanger sequencing. Software-based bioinformatics analyses (protein sequence conservation analysis, prediction of protein phosphorylation sites, protein structure modeling, and protein stability prediction) were performed to investigate and deduce their downstream effects.ResultsIn this article, we summarized all the previously reported cases of ASNSD and that of a Chinese girl who was clinically diagnosed with ASNSD, which was later confirmed via genetic testing. Whole-exome sequencing revealed two compound heterozygous missense mutations within the ASNS (c.368T > C, p.F123S and c.1649G > A, p.R550H). The origin of the two mutations was also verified in the patient's parents via Sanger sequencing. The mutation c.368T > C (p.F123S) was discovered and confirmed to be novel and previously unreported. Using software-based bioinformatics analyses, we deduced that the two mutation sites are highly conserved across a wide range of species, with the ability to alter different phosphorylation sites and destabilize the ASNS protein structure. The newly identified p.F123S mutation was predicted to be the most significantly destabilizing and detrimental mutation to the ASNS protein structure, compared to all other previously reported mutations.ConclusionEvidently, the presence of these compound heterozygous mutations could lead to severe clinical phenotypes and serve as a potential indicator for considerably higher risk with less optimistic prognosis in ASNSD patients.
