Genes affected
MKRN3 (HGNC:7114): (makorin ring finger protein 3) The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING (C3HC4) zinc finger motif and several C3H zinc finger motifs. This gene is intronless and imprinted, with expression only from the paternal allele. Disruption of the imprinting at this locus may contribute to Prader-Willi syndrome. An antisense RNA of unknown function has been found overlapping this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.79).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00347 (528/152274) while in subpopulation NFE AF= 0.0055 (374/68020). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00504. There are 3 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 272 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 AC in GnomAd4 at 528 AD gene.
