not provided Pathogenic:2
Functional studies in fibroblasts derived from patients harboring the c.2 T>C variant have demonstrated reduced NR2F1 mRNA and NR2F1 protein levels, suggesting the variant impacts both transcription and translation (Chen et al., 2016), however, additional studies have not been reported; Initiation codon variant in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26986877, 30945278, 32484994) -
This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the NR2F1 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 3. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the gnomAD database. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with Bosch-Boonstra-Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome (PMID: 26986877). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279855). Studies have shown that disruption of the initiator codon alters NR2F1 gene expression (PMID: 26986877). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Bosch-Boonstra-Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome Pathogenic:2
A heterozygous start-loss variant was identified, NM_005654.5(NR2F1):c.2T>C in exon 1 of 3 of the NR2F1 gene. This start-loss variant is predicted to create a change at amino acid position 1 of the protein, NP_005645.1(NR2F1):p.(Met1?), resulting in the loss of the canonical translation initiation codon. The variant is not present in the gnomAD population database. It has been previously reported in patients with Bosch-Boonstra-Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome (Chen, C.A. et al. (2016)). In addition, functional analysis shows that this variant causes decreased NR2F1 protein level (Chen, C.A. et al. (2016)). Other variants predicted to abolish the canonical translation initiation have been reported as pathogenic (ClinVar; Chen, C.A. et al. (2016)). Based on information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as PATHOGENIC. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.2T>C (p.M1?) alteration is located in coding exon 1 of the NR2F1 gene and results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). Sequence variations that modify the initiation codon are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame. Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), the NR2F1 c.2T>C alteration was not observed, with coverage at this position. This alteration and other alterations affecting the same initiation site have been reported in multiple unrelated patients with Bosch-Boonstra-Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome (Chen. 2016; Rech, 2020). Most of the alterations were reported de novo. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
