Genes affected
VSX2 (HGNC:1975): (visual system homeobox 2) This gene encodes a homeobox protein originally described as a retina-specific transcription factor. Mutations in this gene are associated with microphthalmia, cataracts and iris abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00313 (434/138766) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.0121 (52/4302). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00947. There are 2 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 205 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 2 AR gene
