Genes affected
TFEC (HGNC:11754): (transcription factor EC) This gene encodes a member of the micropthalmia (MiT) family of basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factors. MiT transcription factors regulate the expression of target genes by binding to E-box recognition sequences as homo- or heterodimers, and play roles in multiple cellular processes including survival, growth and differentiation. The encoded protein is a transcriptional activator of the nonmuscle myosin II heavy chain-A gene, and may also co-regulate target genes in osteoclasts as a heterodimer with micropthalmia-associated transcription factor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 09, 2021The c.766C>A (p.Q256K) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 7) of the TFEC gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 766, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 256 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
