Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_ModerateBS2

The NM_002025.4(AFF2):​c.178T>C​(p.Tyr60His) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000143 in 1,186,144 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. There are 6 hemizygotes in GnomAD. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/23 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y60C) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
AFF2 (HGNC:3776): (ALF transcription elongation factor 2) This gene encodes a putative transcriptional activator that is a member of the AF4\FMR2 gene family. This gene is associated with the folate-sensitive fragile X E locus on chromosome X. A repeat polymorphism in the fragile X E locus results in silencing of this gene causing Fragile X E syndrome. Fragile X E syndrome is a form of nonsyndromic X-linked cognitive disability. In addition, this gene contains 6-25 GCC repeats that are expanded to >200 repeats in the disease state. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
