Genes affected

CITED2 (HGNC:1987): (Cbp/p300 interacting transactivator with Glu/Asp rich carboxy-terminal domain 2) The protein encoded by this gene inhibits transactivation of HIF1A-induced genes by competing with binding of hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha to p300-CH1. Mutations in this gene are a cause of cardiac septal defects. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.601A>T (p.M201L) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the CITED2 gene. This alteration results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 601, causing the methionine (M) at amino acid position 201 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
