Genes affected
ZIC2 (HGNC:12873): (Zic family member 2) This gene encodes a member of the ZIC family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. This protein functions as a transcriptional repressor and may regulate tissue specific expression of dopamine receptor D1. Expansion of an alanine repeat in the C-terminus of the encoded protein and other mutations in this gene cause holoprosencephaly type 5. Holoprosencephaly is the most common structural anomaly of the human brain. A polyhistidine tract polymorphism in this gene may be associated with increased risk of neural tube defects. This gene is closely linked to a gene encoding zinc finger protein of the cerebellum 5, a related family member on chromosome 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 04, 2017The c.-19G>C variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The variant's position has low coverage in the ExAC dataset, and population data is therefore unavailable (Lek et al., 2016). This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. However several in-silico splice prediction models predict that c.-19G>C has no effect on splicing and thus, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change in this individual is unknown. In summary, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or a rare benign variant. -
