Genes affected
MEGF8 (HGNC:3233): (multiple EGF like domains 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
This position, referring to a specific DNA site, is a probable branch point but is likely benign (scored 1 / 10, using the threshold of <=3). The score ranges from 0 to 10, with values ≤3 considered benign and >5 classified as pathogenic. Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.83).
BP6
Variant 19-42360759-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-42360759-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 445570.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00712 (1085/152356) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0128 (873/68026). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0121. There are 5 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 479 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 5 AR gene
