Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_ModerateBS2
The NM_001385745.1(ZNF384):c.1688G>A(p.Gly563Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000498 in 1,614,064 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
ZNF384 (HGNC:11955): (zinc finger protein 384) This gene encodes a C2H2-type zinc finger protein, which may function as a transcription factor. This gene also contains long CAG trinucleotide repeats that encode consecutive glutamine residues. The protein appears to bind and regulate the promoters of the extracellular matrix genes MMP1, MMP3, MMP7 and COL1A1. Studies in mouse suggest that nuclear matrix transcription factors (NP/NMP4) may be part of a general mechanical pathway that couples cell construction and function during extracellular matrix remodeling. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Recurrent rearrangements of this gene with the Ewing's sarcoma gene, EWSR1 on chromosome 22, or with the TAF15 gene on chromosome 17, or with the TCF3 (E2A) gene on chromosome 19, have been observed in acute leukemia. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 7. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]

Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.1595G>A (p.G532D) alteration is located in exon 11 (coding exon 9) of the ZNF384 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1595, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 532 to be replaced by an aspartic acid (D). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
