Genes affected

DLX2 (HGNC:2915): (distal-less homeobox 2) Many vertebrate homeo box-containing genes have been identified on the basis of their sequence similarity with Drosophila developmental genes. Members of the Dlx gene family contain a homeobox that is related to that of Distal-less (Dll), a gene expressed in the head and limbs of the developing fruit fly. The Distal-less (Dlx) family of genes comprises at least 6 different members, DLX1-DLX6. The DLX proteins are postulated to play a role in forebrain and craniofacial development. This gene is located in a tail-to-tail configuration with another member of the gene family on the long arm of chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.29202718).
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 6 AD gene.

The c.853C>G (p.Q285E) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the DLX2 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 853, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 285 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
