Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BS2
The NM_001123385.2(BCOR):c.5174A>G(p.Asp1725Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000455 in 1,097,763 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. There are 2 hemizygotes in GnomAD. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D1725A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
BCOR (HGNC:20893): (BCL6 corepressor) The protein encoded by this gene was identified as an interacting corepressor of BCL6, a POZ/zinc finger transcription repressor that is required for germinal center formation and may influence apoptosis. This protein selectively interacts with the POZ domain of BCL6, but not with eight other POZ proteins. Specific class I and II histone deacetylases (HDACs) have been shown to interact with this protein, which suggests a possible link between the two classes of HDACs. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome Y.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
