Genes affected
SHH (HGNC:10848): (sonic hedgehog signaling molecule) This gene encodes a protein that is instrumental in patterning the early embryo. It has been implicated as the key inductive signal in patterning of the ventral neural tube, the anterior-posterior limb axis, and the ventral somites. Of three human proteins showing sequence and functional similarity to the sonic hedgehog protein of Drosophila, this protein is the most similar. The protein is made as a precursor that is autocatalytically cleaved; the N-terminal portion is soluble and contains the signalling activity while the C-terminal portion is involved in precursor processing. More importantly, the C-terminal product covalently attaches a cholesterol moiety to the N-terminal product, restricting the N-terminal product to the cell surface and preventing it from freely diffusing throughout the developing embryo. Defects in this protein or in its signalling pathway are a cause of holoprosencephaly (HPE), a disorder in which the developing forebrain fails to correctly separate into right and left hemispheres. HPE is manifested by facial deformities. It is also thought that mutations in this gene or in its signalling pathway may be responsible for VACTERL syndrome, which is characterized by vertebral defects, anal atresia, tracheoesophageal fistula with esophageal atresia, radial and renal dysplasia, cardiac anomalies, and limb abnormalities. Additionally, mutations in a long range enhancer located approximately 1 megabase upstream of this gene disrupt limb patterning and can result in preaxial polydactyly. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000193.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-155803582-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 3253271.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 26 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.9479 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.49525 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to polydactyly of a triphalangeal thumb, microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma 5, solitary median maxillary central incisor syndrome, holoprosencephaly 3, skeletal system disorder, hypoplastic tibiae-postaxial polydactyly syndrome, holoprosencephaly, syndactyly type 4, microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma, autosomal dominant preaxial polydactyly-upperback hypertrichosis syndrome, triphalangeal thumb-polysyndactyly syndrome.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.968
PP5
Variant 7-155803581-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-155803581-G-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 65892.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
