Genes affected
EPHA4 (HGNC:3388): (EPH receptor A4) This gene belongs to the ephrin receptor subfamily of the protein-tyrosine kinase family. EPH and EPH-related receptors have been implicated in mediating developmental events, particularly in the nervous system. Receptors in the EPH subfamily typically have a single kinase domain and an extracellular region containing a Cys-rich domain and 2 fibronectin type III repeats. The ephrin receptors are divided into 2 groups based on the similarity of their extracellular domain sequences and their affinities for binding ephrin-A and ephrin-B ligands. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 19, 2024The c.2956G>A (p.V986I) alteration is located in exon 17 (coding exon 17) of the EPHA4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2956, causing the valine (V) at amino acid position 986 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 05, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 986 of the EPHA4 protein (p.Val986Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs141387215, gnomAD 0.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EPHA4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1353594). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
