Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PVS1_Strong PM2

The NM_003483.6(HMGA2):c.249+3_249+6del variant causes a splice donor, splice donor region, intron change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000276 in 1,450,968 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).

Genes affected

HMGA2 (HGNC:5009): (high mobility group AT-hook 2) This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the non-histone chromosomal high mobility group (HMG) protein family. HMG proteins function as architectural factors and are essential components of the enhancesome. This protein contains structural DNA-binding domains and may act as a transcriptional regulating factor. Identification of the deletion, amplification, and rearrangement of this gene that are associated with myxoid liposarcoma suggests a role in adipogenesis and mesenchymal differentiation. A gene knock out study of the mouse counterpart demonstrated that this gene is involved in diet-induced obesity. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.15151516 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.9, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: tggGTaata. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
