Genes affected

PAX6 (HGNC:8620): (paired box 6) This gene encodes paired box protein Pax-6, one of many human homologs of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. In addition to a conserved paired box domain, a hallmark feature of this gene family, the encoded protein also contains a homeobox domain. Both domains are known to bind DNA and function as regulators of gene transcription. Activity of this protein is key in the development of neural tissues, particularly the eye. This gene is regulated by multiple enhancers located up to hundreds of kilobases distant from this locus. Mutations in this gene or in the enhancer regions can cause ocular disorders such as aniridia and Peter's anomaly. Use of alternate promoters and alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Interestingly, inclusion of a particular alternate coding exon has been shown to increase the length of the paired box domain and alter its DNA binding specificity. Consequently, isoforms that carry the shorter paired box domain regulate a different set of genes compared to the isoforms carrying the longer paired box domain. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2019]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 2 uncertain in NM_001368894.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), PAX6. . Gene score misZ 2.8175 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 3.256 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with Peters anomaly, coloboma, ocular, autosomal dominant, coloboma of optic nerve, aniridia 1, PAX6-related ocular dysgenesis, foveal hypoplasia 1, foveal hypoplasia-presenile cataract syndrome, isolated aniridia, diabetes mellitus, aniridia-cerebellar ataxia-intellectual disability syndrome, autosomal dominant keratitis, isolated optic nerve hypoplasia.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant 11-31800837-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-31800837-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3471.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 126 of the PAX6 protein (p.Val126Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PAX6 function (PMID: 14744876, 27013732). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PAX6 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3471). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with aniridia (PMID: 9931324). -
