Genes affected
EDN3 (HGNC:3178): (endothelin 3) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the endothelin family. Endothelins are endothelium-derived vasoactive peptides involved in a variety of biological functions. The active form of this protein is a 21 amino acid peptide processed from the precursor protein. The active peptide is a ligand for endothelin receptor type B (EDNRB). The interaction of this endothelin with EDNRB is essential for development of neural crest-derived cell lineages, such as melanocytes and enteric neurons. Mutations in this gene and EDNRB have been associated with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) and Waardenburg syndrome (WS), which are congenital disorders involving neural crest-derived cells. Altered expression of this gene is implicated in tumorigenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

EDN3-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 08, 2024The EDN3 c.293C>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr98Lys. This variant was reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous states in four individuals with Waardenburg syndrome, with depigmentation noted in heterozygotes (Table S4, Pingault. 2010. PubMed ID: 20127975). This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. A different substitution at this amino acid position (p.Thr98Met) has been reported as pathogenic (Mohseni. 2021. PubMed ID: 33713422; Kapoor. 2012. PubMed ID: 22876130). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Hirschsprung disease, susceptibility to, 4 Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
