Genes affected
DUOX2 (HGNC:13273): (dual oxidase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a glycoprotein and a member of the NADPH oxidase family. The synthesis of thyroid hormone is catalyzed by a protein complex located at the apical membrane of thyroid follicular cells. This complex contains an iodide transporter, thyroperoxidase, and a peroxide generating system that includes this encoded protein and DUOX1. This protein is known as dual oxidase because it has both a peroxidase homology domain and a gp91phox domain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Thyroid dyshormonogenesis 6 Uncertain:2

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Variant summary: DUOX2 c.1921G>A (p.Glu641Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0032 in 251494 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes suggesting a benign role for this variant. c.1921G>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with congenital hypothyroidism with a non-informative genotype and the authors classified the variant as benign (example: de Filippis_2017 and Gentilini_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Thyroid Dyshormonogenesis 6. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=2) and likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

The DUOX2 c.1921G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu641Lys. This patient is heterozygous in the DUOX2 gene for a sequence variant designated c.1921G>A, which is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu641Lys. This variant has been reported in an individual with a thyroid anomaly who also presented with cleft palate and an atrial septal defect, however an additional variant in a different gene was also reported (CH83, Supplemental Table 3, de Filippis et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28444304). This variant was identified in multiple individuals participating in a wellness-program and was deemed a variant of unknown physiologic significance (Supplemental table 1, Grasberger et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33651715). This variant is reported at a subpopulation frequency of ~0.50% (including 2 homozygotes) in a database of individuals of unknown phenotype, which is high for a variant considered to be pathogenic for an autosomal recessive disorder (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/15-45398750-C-T). This variant has conflicting interpretations regarding pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from uncertain significance to likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/418789/). While we suspect that this variant is benign, at this time we interpret its clinical significance as uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
