Genes affected
FOXL2 (HGNC:1092): (forkhead box L2) This gene encodes a forkhead transcription factor. The protein contains a fork-head DNA-binding domain and may play a role in ovarian development and function. Expansion of a polyalanine repeat region and other mutations in this gene are a cause of blepharophimosis syndrome and premature ovarian failure 3. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 150 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 3-138946566-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-138946566-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 4860.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The Q53X variant in the FOXL2 gene has been reported previously in association with blepharophimosis-ptosis-epicanthus inversus syndrome (Ramirez-Castro et al., 2002). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation, as the last 324 amino acids of the protein are lost. Functional studies indicate that the Q53X variant results in aberrant protein function (Kim et al., 2014). This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret Q53X as a pathogenic variant. -
