Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP3
The NM_007129.5(ZIC2):c.1377_1406delAGCGGCGGCGGCGGCTGCGGCGGCGGCGGC(p.Ala460_Ala469del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000783 in 1,417,518 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A459A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Holoprosencephaly 5    Uncertain:2 
This variant has been observed in individuals with holoprosencephaly (PMID: 19177455, 21940735). This variant, c.1377_1406del, results in the deletion of 10 amino acid(s) of the ZIC2 protein (p.Ala461_Ala470del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1343256). This variant disrupts a region of the ZIC2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Ala461_465del) have been observed in individuals with ZIC2-related conditions (PMID: 19955556). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
