Genes affected

PHOX2B (HGNC:9143): (paired like homeobox 2B) The DNA-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the paired family of homeobox proteins localized to the nucleus. The protein functions as a transcription factor involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations and the determination of neurotransmitter phenotype. The gene product is linked to enhancement of second messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydroylase, c-fos promoters and several enhancers, including cyclic amp-response element and serum-response element. Expansion of a 20 amino acid polyalanine tract in this protein by 5-13 aa has been associated with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -14 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.85).
• BP6: Variant 4-41744651-G-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr4-41744651-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 348791.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00143 (218/152300) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.00507 (211/41580). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00451. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 95 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 218 AD gene.

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
