Genes affected
CYFIP1 (HGNC:13759): (cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 1) This gene encodes a protein that regulates cytoskeletal dynamics and protein translation. The encoded protein is a component of the WAVE regulatory complex (WRC), which promotes actin polymerization. This protein also interacts with the synaptic functional regulator FMR1 protein and translation initiation factor 4E to inhibit protein translation. A large chromosomal deletion including this gene is associated with increased risk of schizophrenia and epilepsy in human patients. Reduced expression of this gene has been observed in various human cancers and the encoded protein may inhibit tumor invasion. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2022]

The c.3718C>T (p.R1240C) alteration is located in exon 31 (coding exon 30) of the CYFIP1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3718, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 1240 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
