Genes affected
MORC3 (HGNC:23572): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 3) This gene encodes a protein that localizes to the nuclear matrix and forms nuclear bodies via an ATP-dependent mechanism. The protein is predicted to have coiled-coil and zinc finger domains and has RNA binding activity. Alternative splicing produces multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 19, 2022The c.343G>T (p.A115S) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the MORC3 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 343, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 115 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
