Genes affected
 PHF21A  (HGNC:24156):  (PHD finger protein 21A) The PHF21A gene encodes BHC80, a component of a BRAF35 (MIM 605535)/histone deacetylase (HDAC; see MIM 601241) complex (BHC) that mediates repression of neuron-specific genes through the cis-regulatory element known as repressor element-1 (RE1) or neural restrictive silencer (NRS) (Hakimi et al., 2002 [PubMed 12032298]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2010]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0118 (1274/108314) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0392 (1122/28604). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0373. There are 20 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 594 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 0. This position passed quality control check. 
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 1274 AD gene.
