Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 0P and 7B. BP4_ModerateBS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_003924.4(PHOX2B):c.617C>G(p.Pro206Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000374 in 1,604,220 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P206S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.09301317).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000386 (56/1452268) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000491 (42/85464). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000373. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 37 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 56 AD gene.
