Genes affected

FEZF2 (HGNC:13506): (FEZ family zinc finger 2) Predicted to enable transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; nervous system development; and regulation of neuron differentiation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-62372066-C-CCT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-62372066-C-CCT is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3367203.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The variant c.801_802dup (p.(Gly268Glufs*115)) in exon 2 of the FEZF2 gene is not found in the gnomAD database and changes the protein sequence at position Gly268, the new reading frame ends in a STOP codon at position 115 and thus interrupts the reading frame prematurely. Truncating variants in FEZF2 were described to be a mechanism of disease (PMID: 38425142; gnomAD 4.1.0 pLI-score = 1). This truncating variant was found to be de novo in our patient, with confirmed maternity and paternity. Patient also carried a de novo likely pathogenic KMT2B Variant (NM_014727.3:c.5221G>A, p.Gly1741Ser). ACMG criteria used for classification: PVS1_STR, PS2, PM2_SUP. -
