The c.1480del (p.Thr494ProfsTer59) variant in GP1BA is a frameshift variant in exon 2 of 2, that may cause loss of function of the protein; it is predicted to escape nonsense mediated decay and remove 15% of the protein (PVS1_Strong). At least four Bernard-Soulier syndrome patients have been reported with this variant (PM3_Strong); two are homozygous (PMIDs: 9628437, 8772211; 1pt) and two are compound heterozygous with Glu347Ter and c.1454dup variants respectively (PMID: 23414566, 9241731). Case I, of PMID: 23414566, had no aggregation response to ristocetin and decreased thrombin-induced aggregation but normal aggregation with ADP and collagen, additionally GPIbα expression was completely absent on patient platelets, which is highly specific to Bernard-Soulier syndrome (PP4). Additionally, the patient had excessive mucocutaneous bleeding and macrothrombocytopenia which are consistent with BSS. The Grpmax filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.00004345 (5/44886 alleles) in the East Asian population and is below the <0.0001114 threshold for PM2_Supporting. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for autosomal recessive Bernard-Soulier syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen PD VCEP: PP4, PM3_Strong, PVS1_Strong, PM2_Supporting (ClinGen Platelet Disorders VCEP specifications version 1).
