Genes affected
HOXA2 (HGNC:5103): (homeobox A2) In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. This gene is part of the A cluster on chromosome 7 and encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation. The encoded protein may be involved in the placement of hindbrain segments in the proper location along the anterior-posterior axis during development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The HOXA2 p.Gln335Gln variant was not identified in the literature but was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs779536985) and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Illumina for Microtia, Hearing Impairment, and Cleft Palate). The variant was identified in control databases in 36 of 282892 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001273 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Other in 2 of 7228 chromosomes (freq: 0.000277), European (non-Finnish) in 32 of 129192 chromosomes (freq: 0.000248) and Latino in 2 of 35440 chromosomes (freq: 0.000056), but was not observed in the African, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), or South Asian populations. The p.Gln335Gln variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. However, 3 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. However, this has not been confirmed by RNA analysis and is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Bilateral microtia-deafness-cleft palate syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
