Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLR3A-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs773370487, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 25 of the POLR3A gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in POLR3A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21855841, 25339210, 27612211, 30414627, 30450527).
