Genes affected

SIM2 (HGNC:10883): (SIM bHLH transcription factor 2) This gene represents a homolog of the Drosophila single-minded (sim) gene, which encodes a transcription factor that is a master regulator of neurogenesis. The encoded protein is ubiquitinated by RING-IBR-RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases, including the parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase. This gene maps within the so-called Down syndrome chromosomal region, and is thus thought to contribute to some specific Down syndrome phenotypes. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]

(HGNC:):

ACMG classification

The c.68T>C (p.L23P) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the SIM2 gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 68, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 23 to be replaced by a proline (P). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
