Genes affected

WWOX (HGNC:12799): (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

The c.547G>C (p.D183H) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the WWOX gene. This alteration results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 547, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 183 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
