Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BS1 BS2

The NM_001083962.2(TCF4):​c.73-837_73-802dupGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCTGCT variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 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. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.

Genes affected

TCF4 (HGNC:11634): (transcription factor 4) This gene encodes transcription factor 4, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor. The encoded protein recognizes an Ephrussi-box ('E-box') binding site ('CANNTG') - a motif first identified in immunoglobulin enhancers. This gene is broadly expressed, and may play an important role in nervous system development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome. In addition, an intronic CTG repeat normally numbering 10-37 repeat units can expand to >50 repeat units and cause Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points.

• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000974 (132/135540) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0016 (7/4382). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00078. There are 3 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 67 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 0. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd4 at 132 AD gene.
