Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_014480.4(ZNF544):c.161G>T(p.Gly54Val) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000178 in 1,461,800 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
ZNF544 (HGNC:16759): (zinc finger protein 544) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.161G>T (p.G54V) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 3) of the ZNF544 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 161, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 54 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
