Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 4P and 8B. PS3BS1BS2

The NM_033343.4(LHX4):c.250C>T(p.Arg84Cys) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000316 in 1,613,950 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV005893898: PS3:Supporting". Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R84H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

LHX4 (HGNC:21734): (LIM homeobox 4) This gene encodes a member of a large protein family which contains the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein is a transcription factor involved in the control of differentiation and development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in this gene cause combined pituitary hormone deficiency 4. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
