Genes affected

TFAP2A (HGNC:11742): (transcription factor AP-2 alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that binds the consensus sequence 5'-GCCNNNGGC-3'. The encoded protein functions as either a homodimer or as a heterodimer with similar family members. This protein activates the transcription of some genes while inhibiting the transcription of others. Defects in this gene are a cause of branchiooculofacial syndrome (BOFS). Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

TFAP2A-AS1 (HGNC:40579): (TFAP2A antisense RNA 1)

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 6-10409905-AC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-10409905-AC-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1805436.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.2, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative and loss of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with Branchiooculofacial syndrome. NMD predicted variants are associated with loss of function mechanism, whereas missense mutations within DNA-binding domain are linked to dominant negative mechanism (PMID: 23578821). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction) (exon2 of 7). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0702 - Other NMD predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Many NMD predicted variants have been reported as pathogenic in individuals with this Branchiooculofacial syndrome (ClinVar, PMID: 21204207, 21728810, 21539471). (SP) 0807 - This variant has no previous evidence of pathogenicity. (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed by trio analysis). (SP) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
