Genes affected
ZIC4 (HGNC:20393): (Zic family member 4) This gene encodes a member of the ZIC family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. Members of this family are important during development, and have been associated with X-linked visceral heterotaxy and holoprosencephaly type 5. This gene is closely linked to the gene encoding zinc finger protein of the cerebellum 1, a related family member on chromosome 3. Heterozygous deletion of these linked genes is involved in Dandy-Walker malformation, which is a congenital cerebellar malformation. Multiple transcript variants have been identified for this gene.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.41).
BP6
Variant 3-147390969-C-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-147390969-C-G is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 130789.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.69 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0295 (4496/152334) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0478 (3251/68032). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0464. There are 108 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 2091 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 108 gene
