Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_003924.4(PHOX2B):​c.870C>G​(p.Pro290Pro) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P290P) has been classified as Benign.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 32)
• Consequence: PHOX2B NM_003924.4 synonymous
• Clinical Significance: Not reported in ClinVar
• Conservation: PhyloP100: -1.05

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 Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.67).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-1.05 with no splicing effect.
