Genes affected
RFXANK (HGNC:9987): (regulatory factor X associated ankyrin containing protein) Major histocompatibility (MHC) class II molecules are transmembrane proteins that have a central role in development and control of the immune system. The protein encoded by this gene, along with regulatory factor X-associated protein and regulatory factor-5, forms a complex that binds to the X box motif of certain MHC class II gene promoters and activates their transcription. Once bound to the promoter, this complex associates with the non-DNA-binding factor MHC class II transactivator, which controls the cell type specificity and inducibility of MHC class II gene expression. This protein contains ankyrin repeats involved in protein-protein interactions. Mutations in this gene have been linked to bare lymphocyte syndrome type II, complementation group B. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
BORCS8 (HGNC:37247): (BLOC-1 related complex subunit 8) Involved in heart development. Part of BORC complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
BORCS8-MEF2B (HGNC:39979): (BORCS8-MEF2B readthrough) This gene represents numerous read-through transcripts that span GeneID:729991 and 100271849. Many read-through transcripts are predicted to be nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) candidates, and are thought to be non-coding. Some transcripts are predicted to be capable of translation reinitiation at a downstream AUG, resulting in expression of at least one isoform of myocyte enhancer factor 2B (MEF2B) from this read-through locus. At least one additional MEF2B variant and isoform can be expressed from a downstream promoter, and is annotated on GeneID:100271849. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.85).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000283 (43/152134) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0005 (34/68020). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000368. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 17 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
