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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PP3

BayesDel_addAF computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.29

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000161 (23/1432258) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.000561 (22/39220). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000379. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 14 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 23 AD gene.
