Genes affected

SOX2 (HGNC:11195): (SRY-box transcription factor 2) This intronless gene encodes a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. The product of this gene is required for stem-cell maintenance in the central nervous system, and also regulates gene expression in the stomach. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic nerve hypoplasia and with syndromic microphthalmia, a severe form of structural eye malformation. This gene lies within an intron of another gene called SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

SOX2-OT (HGNC:20209): (SOX2 overlapping transcript) This gene produces alternatively spliced long non-coding RNAs. These RNAs were observed to be upregulated in tumor cells and positively correlated to expression of the SRY-box 2 gene. Overexpression of these transcripts may promote cell proliferation.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 65 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-181712382-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-181712382-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 988074.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu8*) in the SOX2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 310 amino acid(s) of the SOX2 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Peters' anomaly (PMID: 35170016). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 988074). This variant disrupts a region of the SOX2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr180*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19921648). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
