not provided Pathogenic:1
This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Roberts syndrome (PMID: 31192177). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys139Asnfs*6) in the ESCO2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ESCO2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15821733, 16380922). -

The ESCO2 c.417del (p.Lys139Asnfs*6) variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with Baller-Gerold syndrome (Colombo EA et al., PMID: 31192177). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a germline pathogenic variant by one submitter. This variant is absent from the general population (gnomAD v.2.1.1), indicating it is not a common variant. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, leading to a premature termination codon, which is predicted to lead to nonsense mediated decay. Additionally, other variants in this region causing a premature termination codon have been described in affected individuals and are considered pathogenic (Vega H et al., PMID: 15821733). Based on available information and the ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
