Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_020356.4(CASS4):​c.213C>A​(p.Leu71Leu) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,716 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L71L) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

CASS4 (HGNC:15878): (Cas scaffold protein family member 4) Enables protein tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of protein kinase B signaling; positive regulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity; and positive regulation of substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Located in focal adhesion. Part of cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.67).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.973 with no splicing effect.
