Genes affected
EFNA4 (HGNC:3224): (ephrin A4) This gene encodes a member of the ephrin (EPH) family. The ephrins and EPH-related receptors comprise the largest subfamily of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases and have been implicated in mediating developmental events, especially in the nervous system and in erythropoiesis. Based on their structures and sequence relationships, ephrins are divided into the ephrin-A (EFNA) class, which are anchored to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkage, and the ephrin-B (EFNB) class, which are transmembrane proteins. This gene encodes an EFNA class ephrin that has been implicated in proliferation and metastasis of several types of cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 71 of the EFNA4 protein (p.Glu71Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs770278541, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with craniosynostosis (PMID: 29215649). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
