Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_001174096.2(ZEB1):c.119A>G(p.His40Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
ZEB1 (HGNC:11642): (zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1) This gene encodes a zinc finger transcription factor. The encoded protein likely plays a role in transcriptional repression of interleukin 2. Mutations in this gene have been associated with posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy-3 and late-onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.119A>G (p.H40R) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the ZEB1 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 119, causing the histidine (H) at amino acid position 40 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
