Genes affected

ZC4H2 (HGNC:24931): (zinc finger C4H2-type containing) This gene encodes a member of the zinc finger domain-containing protein family. This family member has a C-terminal zinc finger domain that is characterized by four cysteine residues and two histidine residues, and it also includes a coiled-coil region. This protein has been detected as an autoantigen in hepatocellular carcinoma patients. This gene has been identified as a potential candidate for X-linked cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant X-64921812-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-64921812-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 427151.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
