Genes affected
PHF8 (HGNC:20672): (PHD finger protein 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a histone lysine demethylase that preferentially acts on histones in the monomethyl or dimethyl states. The encoded protein requires Fe(2+) ion, 2-oxoglutarate, and oxygen for its catalytic activity. The protein has an N-terminal PHD finger and a central Jumonji C domain. This gene is thought to function as a transcription activator. Defects in this gene are a cause of syndromic X-linked Siderius type intellectual disability (MRXSSD) and over-expression of this gene is associated with several forms of cancer. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 26, 2023The c.2902C>T (p.R968C) alteration is located in exon 21 (coding exon 20) of the PHF8 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2902, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 968 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
