Genes affected
MEGF8 (HGNC:3233): (multiple EGF like domains 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.45).
BP6
Variant 19-42334012-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-42334012-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 473328.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.12 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00572 (871/152260) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0195 (811/41546). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0184. There are 11 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 391 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 11 AR gene
