Genes affected
SIX3 (HGNC:10889): (SIX homeobox 3) This gene encodes a member of the sine oculis homeobox transcription factor family. The encoded protein plays a role in eye development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with holoprosencephaly type 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 51 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 2-44942123-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-44942123-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2729808.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Submissions by phenotype

Holoprosencephaly 2 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 17, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu7Glnfs*244) in the SIX3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SIX3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18791198). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SIX3-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
