Genes affected
 FIG4  (HGNC:16873):  (FIG4 phosphoinositide 5-phosphatase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SAC domain-containing protein gene family. The SAC domain, approximately 400 amino acids in length and consisting of seven conserved motifs, has been shown to possess phosphoinositide phosphatase activity. The yeast homolog, Sac1p, is involved in the regulation of various phosphoinositides, and affects diverse cellular functions such as actin cytoskeleton organization, Golgi function, and maintenance of vacuole morphology. Membrane-bound phosphoinositides function as signaling molecules and play a key role in vesicle trafficking in eukaryotic cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type 4J. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -14 ACMG points.
PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.018722467 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 13, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: ttgtttttttttttttttAGgta.  Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change. 
BP6
Variant 6-109732621-G-GTT is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-109732621-G-GTT is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 917084.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. 
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00964 (1420/147268) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0283 (1141/40298). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0269. There are 17 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 687 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 0. This position passed quality control check. 
BS2
