Genes affected

ZNF423 (HGNC:16762): (zinc finger protein 423) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein that belongs to the family of Kruppel-like C2H2 zinc finger proteins. It functions as a DNA-binding transcription factor by using distinct zinc fingers in different signaling pathways. Thus, it is thought that this gene may have multiple roles in signal transduction during development. Mutations in this gene are associated with nephronophthisis-14 and Joubert syndrome-19. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), ZNF423. . Gene score misZ 2.4902 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.2773 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with nephronophthisis 14, Joubert syndrome 17, nephronophthisis 2, Joubert syndrome with oculorenal defect, nephronophthisis.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.28773278).

This variant is present in population databases (rs774348975, ExAC 0.002%). This sequence change replaces leucine with valine at codon 862 of the ZNF423 protein (p.Leu862Val). The leucine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between leucine and valine. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with ZNF423-related disease. -
