Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PP4PM2_SupportingPM3PP1_StrongPVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001369369.1(FOXN1):c.763C>T (p.Arg255Ter) nonsense variant occurs in exon 5 of 9 and is predicted to result in non-sense mediated decay (PVS1). The highest MAF in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000008790 (1/113762 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population. This is below the SCID VCEP specified threshold of <0.00002412 (PM2_supporting). At least one patient (PMID:10206641) is described with congenital alopecia, nail dystrophy, and very low T cell number which is highly specific to FOXN1 deficiency (PP4). This individual had an affected siblings, also homozygous for the variant, as reported in PMID:10206641. Additionally PMID:31447097 reports another 14 heterozygous relatives with nail dystrophy belonging to same extended family (estimated LOD score 4.82; PP1_Strong). At least two additional unrelated patients have been reported, these three unrelated patients are all homozygous (PMIDs: 28636882, 20978268, 10206641; PM3). In summary this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for semidominant T-cell immunodeficiency, congenital alopecia, and nail dystrophy due to FOXN1 deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_supporting, PP4, PP1_strong, PM3 as specified by the ClinGen SCID VCEP FOXN1 subgroup (specifications v1.0).

Genes affected
FOXN1 (HGNC:12765): (forkhead box N1) Mutations in the winged-helix transcription factor gene at the nude locus in mice and rats produce the pleiotropic phenotype of hairlessness and athymia, resulting in a severely compromised immune system. This gene is orthologous to the mouse and rat genes and encodes a similar DNA-binding transcription factor that is thought to regulate keratin gene expression. A mutation in this gene has been correlated with T-cell immunodeficiency, the skin disorder congenital alopecia, and nail dystrophy. Alternative splicing in the 5' UTR of this gene has been observed.
