Genes affected

ZIC3 (HGNC:12874): (Zic family member 3) This gene encodes a member of the ZIC family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. This nuclear protein probably functions as a transcription factor in early stages of left-right body axis formation. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked visceral heterotaxy, which includes congenital heart disease and left-right axis defects in organs. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.159_161del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the ZIC3 protein (p.Ala55del), 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ZIC3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 573248). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
