Genes affected
RBFOX3 (HGNC:27097): (RNA binding fox-1 homolog 3) This gene encodes a member of the RNA-binding FOX protein family which is involved in the regulation of alternative splicing of pre-mRNA. The protein has an N-terminal proline-rich region, an RNA recognition motif (RRM) domain, and a C-terminal alanine-rich region. This gene produces the neuronal nuclei (NeuN) antigen that has been widely used as a marker for post-mitotic neurons. This gene has its highest expression in the central nervous system and plays a prominent role in neural tissue development and regulation of adult brain function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with numerous neurological disorders. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 20, 2023In 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1377219). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RBFOX3-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.03%). This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the RBFOX3 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RBFOX3 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
