Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_ModerateBS2

The NM_014481.4(APEX2):ā€‹c.716A>Cā€‹(p.His239Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000698 in 1,146,023 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. There are 3 hemizygotes in GnomAD. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (ā˜…). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H239Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
APEX2 (HGNC:17889): (apurinic/apyrimidinic endodeoxyribonuclease 2) Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites occur frequently in DNA molecules by spontaneous hydrolysis, by DNA damaging agents or by DNA glycosylases that remove specific abnormal bases. AP sites are pre-mutagenic lesions that can prevent normal DNA replication so the cell contains systems to identify and repair such sites. Class II AP endonucleases cleave the phosphodiester backbone 5' to the AP site. This gene encodes a protein shown to have a weak class II AP endonuclease activity. Most of the encoded protein is located in the nucleus but some is also present in mitochondria. This protein may play an important role in both nuclear and mitochondrial base excision repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 04, 2024The c.716A>C (p.H239P) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the APEX2 gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 716, causing the histidine (H) at amino acid position 239 to be replaced by a proline (P). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
