Genes affected
ZNF408 (HGNC:20041): (zinc finger protein 408) The protein encoded by this gene contains ten tandem zinc fingers and an N-terminal SET domain, so it is likely a DNA binding protein that interacts with other proteins. In adults, the encoded protein is expressed most highly in retina. Consequently, defects in this gene have been associated with familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 18 of the ZNF408 protein (p.Ala18Thr). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 1, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs201062665, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ZNF408-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 961044). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
