Genes affected

PITX3 (HGNC:9006): (paired like homeodomain 3) This gene encodes a member of the RIEG/PITX homeobox family, which is in the bicoid class of homeodomain proteins. Members of this family act as transcription factors. This protein is involved in lens formation during eye development. Mutations of this gene have been associated with anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis and congenital cataracts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

PITX3 links:

GBF1 (HGNC:4181): (golgi brefeldin A resistant guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1) This gene encodes a member of the Sec7 domain family. The encoded protein is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that regulates the recruitment of proteins to membranes by mediating GDP to GTP exchange. The encoded protein is localized to the Golgi apparatus and plays a role in vesicular trafficking by activating ADP ribosylation factor 1. The encoded protein has also been identified as an important host factor for viral replication. Multiple transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 25, 2021	This sequence change results in a frameshift in the PITX3 gene (p.Gly220Profs*95). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 83 amino acid(s) of the PITX3 protein and extend the protein by 11 additional amino acid residues. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This frameshift has been observed in individuals with congenital cataracts (PMID: 9620774, 15286169, 24555714, 29405783). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 657ins17. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468353). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this frameshift affects PITX3 function (PMID: 17888164, 24555714). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 25, 2018	The c.640_656dup17 variant in the PITX3 gene is the most common PITX3 pathogenic variant and has been reported to segregate with ocular disorders in multiple unrelated families (Semina et al., 1998; Verdin et al., 2014; Zazo Seco et al., 2018). The c.640_656dup17 variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glycine 220, changes this amino acid to a Proline residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 95 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gly220ProfsX95. This frameshift variant replaces the typical last 83 amino acid residues in the PITX3 protein with 94 different amino acid residues. Functional studies of eye cells transfected with the c.640_656dup17 variant (described as G219fs due to alternative nomenclature) demonstrated a decrease in the transactivation activity of the PITX3 protein compared to wild-type cells (Sakazume et al., 2007). Additional functional studies suggested that this variant impairs PITX3-DNA binding (Sakazume et al., 2007). The c.640_656dup17 variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret c.640_656dup17 as a pathogenic variant. -

The PITX3 c.640_656dup17 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Gly220Profs*95). This variant has been reported as causative for autosomal dominant congenital cataract and anterior segment malformations in multiple individuals (Verdin et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24555714; Semina et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9620774. Sakazume et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17888164, reported as G219fs; Zhang et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30078984). This variant has not been documented in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/468353). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.640_656dup (p.Gly220Profs*95) as pathogenic. -
