12-102958346-GGCCGCAGCCGCGGCGGCCGCA-G

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP3BP6

The NM_004316.4(ASCL1):​c.108_128delAGCCGCGGCGGCCGCAGCCGC​(p.Ala37_Ala43del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000348 in 1,435,330 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (no stars).

Genes affected
ASCL1 (HGNC:738): (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) family of transcription factors. The protein activates transcription by binding to the E box (5'-CANNTG-3'). Dimerization with other BHLH proteins is required for efficient DNA binding. This protein plays a role in the neuronal commitment and differentiation and in the generation of olfactory and autonomic neurons. Mutations in this gene may contribute to the congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) phenotype in rare cases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
PAH (HGNC:8582): (phenylalanine hydroxylase) This gene encodes a member of the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase protein family. The encoded phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme hydroxylates phenylalanine to tyrosine and is the rate-limiting step in phenylalanine catabolism. Deficiency of this enzyme activity results in the autosomal recessive disorder phenylketonuria. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
