Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 3P and 4B. PM2 PP2 BP4_Strong

The NM_033163.5(FGF8):​c.686C>G​(p.Thr229Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T229M) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

FGF8 (HGNC:3686): (fibroblast growth factor 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This protein is known to be a factor that supports androgen and anchorage independent growth of mammary tumor cells. Overexpression of this gene has been shown to increase tumor growth and angiogensis. The adult expression of this gene is restricted to testes and ovaries. Temporal and spatial pattern of this gene expression suggests its function as an embryonic epithelial factor. Studies of the mouse and chick homologs revealed roles in midbrain and limb development, organogenesis, embryo gastrulation and left-right axis determination. The alternative splicing of this gene results in four transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 12 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.5674 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.0113 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, holoprosencephaly, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 6 with or without anosmia, Kallmann syndrome.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.061387956).
