Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -17 ACMG points: 0P and 17B. BP3BP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_014491.4(FOXP2):c.495_506dupACAACAGCAGCA(p.Gln166_Gln169dup) variant causes a disruptive inframe insertion change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000365 in 1,611,820 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).

Genes affected

FOXP2 (HGNC:13875): (forkhead box P2) This gene encodes a member of the forkhead/winged-helix (FOX) family of transcription factors. It is expressed in fetal and adult brain as well as in several other organs such as the lung and gut. The protein product contains a FOX DNA-binding domain and a large polyglutamine tract and is an evolutionarily conserved transcription factor, which may bind directly to approximately 300 to 400 gene promoters in the human genome to regulate the expression of a variety of genes. This gene is required for proper development of speech and language regions of the brain during embryogenesis, and may be involved in a variety of biological pathways and cascades that may ultimately influence language development. Mutations in this gene cause speech-language disorder 1 (SPCH1), also known as autosomal dominant speech and language disorder with orofacial dyspraxia. Multiple alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
