Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_001123385.2(BCOR):c.5035A>C(p.Ile1679Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000892 in 112,058 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. There are no hemizygote samples in GnomAD. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. I1679I) has been classified as Benign.
BCOR (HGNC:20893): (BCL6 corepressor) The protein encoded by this gene was identified as an interacting corepressor of BCL6, a POZ/zinc finger transcription repressor that is required for germinal center formation and may influence apoptosis. This protein selectively interacts with the POZ domain of BCL6, but not with eight other POZ proteins. Specific class I and II histone deacetylases (HDACs) have been shown to interact with this protein, which suggests a possible link between the two classes of HDACs. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome Y.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
