Homozygous FIGLA missense variant in two Japanese sisters with primary ovarian insufficiency: Case reports and literature review by Wataru Tanikawa, Hirotomo Saitsu, Yasuhiko Nakamura, Yuichiro Shirafuta, Yasuko Fujisawa, Maki Fukami, Norihiro Sugino, Tsutomu Ogata

“…(Tyr113Cys)‐FIGLA protein was assessed as “pathogenic” or “likely pathogenic” by protein structural predictions, and was evaluated as “destabilizing” or “decrease stability” by protein stability predictions Conclusion The results, in conjunction with the data reported in the literature, imply that FIGLA variants account for a small but certain fraction of non‐syndromic POI, and pose a question as to the relevance of FIGLA variants to an autosomal dominant form of POI, although FIGLA variants have been identified in both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive forms of non‐syndromic POI.…”
