Genes affected

GATA4 (HGNC:4173): (GATA binding protein 4) This gene encodes a member of the GATA family of zinc-finger transcription factors. Members of this family recognize the GATA motif which is present in the promoters of many genes. This protein is thought to regulate genes involved in embryogenesis and in myocardial differentiation and function, and is necessary for normal testicular development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with cardiac septal defects. Additionally, alterations in gene expression have been associated with several cancer types. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Start lost variant, no new inframe start found.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GATA4-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the GATA4 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 7. -
