Genes affected
EDN3 (HGNC:3178): (endothelin 3) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the endothelin family. Endothelins are endothelium-derived vasoactive peptides involved in a variety of biological functions. The active form of this protein is a 21 amino acid peptide processed from the precursor protein. The active peptide is a ligand for endothelin receptor type B (EDNRB). The interaction of this endothelin with EDNRB is essential for development of neural crest-derived cell lineages, such as melanocytes and enteric neurons. Mutations in this gene and EDNRB have been associated with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) and Waardenburg syndrome (WS), which are congenital disorders involving neural crest-derived cells. Altered expression of this gene is implicated in tumorigenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 08, 2022This variant, c.167_190dup, results in the insertion of 8 amino acid(s) of the EDN3 protein (p.Glu56_Glu63dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs755031787, gnomAD 0.2%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EDN3-related conditions. 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. -
EDN3-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 07, 2024The EDN3 c.167_190dup24 variant is predicted to result in an in-frame duplication (p.Glu56_Glu63dup). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.16% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
