Genes affected
ATRX (HGNC:886): (ATRX chromatin remodeler) The protein encoded by this gene contains an ATPase/helicase domain, and thus it belongs to the SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodeling proteins. This protein is found to undergo cell cycle-dependent phosphorylation, which regulates its nuclear matrix and chromatin association, and suggests its involvement in the gene regulation at interphase and chromosomal segregation in mitosis. Mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked syndromes exhibiting cognitive disabilities as well as alpha-thalassemia (ATRX) syndrome. These mutations have been shown to cause diverse changes in the pattern of DNA methylation, which may provide a link between chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, and gene expression in developmental processes. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

The ATRX p.Glu1426del variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs398123423) and ClinVar (classified as likely benign by GeneDx and Invitae; classified as benign by Genetic Services Laboratory University of Chicago, EGL Genetic Diagnostics and Ambry Genetics). The variant was identified in control databases in 300 of 200007 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0015 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (Finnish) in 50 of 16081 chromosomes (freq: 0.003109), European (non-Finnish) in 217 of 91347 chromosomes (freq: 0.002376), Ashkenazi Jewish in 12 of 7581 chromosomes (freq: 0.001583), Other in 5 of 5218 chromosomes (freq: 0.000958), Latino in 9 of 27673 chromosomes (freq: 0.000325), African in 4 of 18738 chromosomes (freq: 0.000214), East Asian in 2 of 14663 chromosomes (freq: 0.000136), and South Asian in 1 of 18706 chromosomes (freq: 0.000053). This variant is an in-frame deletion resulting in the removal of a glutamic acid (glu) residue at codon 1426; the impact of this alteration on ATRX protein function is not known. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
