• NM_001083961.2:c.180G>C

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2 BP4_Strong

The NM_001083961.2(WDR62):​c.180G>C​(p.Val60Val) variant causes a splice region, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,632 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V60V) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

WDR62 (HGNC:24502): (WD repeat domain 62) This gene is proposed to play a role in cerebral cortical development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with microencephaly, cortical malformations, and cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

WDR62 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• microcephaly 2, primary, autosomal recessive, with or without cortical malformations

  Inheritance: AR Classification: DEFINITIVE, STRONG Submitted by: Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Ambry Genetics, Illumina, G2P, ClinGen
• autosomal recessive primary microcephaly

  Inheritance: AR Classification: SUPPORTIVE Submitted by: Orphanet

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.64).
