Genes affected

MBD4 (HGNC:6919): (methyl-CpG binding domain 4, DNA glycosylase) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). These proteins are capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA, and some members can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. This protein contains an MBD domain at the N-terminus that functions both in binding to methylated DNA and in protein interactions and a C-terminal mismatch-specific glycosylase domain that is involved in DNA repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

MBD4 links:

IFT122 (HGNC:13556): (intraflagellar transport 122) This gene encodes a member of the WD repeat protein family. WD repeats are minimally conserved regions of approximately 40 amino acids typically bracketed by gly-his and trp-asp (GH-WD), which may facilitate formation of heterotrimeric or multiprotein complexes. Members of this family are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, signal transduction, apoptosis, and gene regulation. This cytoplasmic protein contains seven WD repeats and an AF-2 domain which function by recruiting coregulatory molecules and in transcriptional activation. Mutations in this gene cause cranioectodermal dysplasia-1. A related pseudogene is located on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

The c.1676_1679delAATA variant, located in coding exon 8 of the MBD4 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1676 to 1679, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K559Ifs*12). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theMBD4 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay, and impacts the last 16 AA of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys565Ilefs*12) in the MBD4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 16 amino acid(s) of the MBD4 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MBD4-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
