Genes affected

FOXE3 (HGNC:3808): (forkhead box E3) This intronless gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors, which is characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. The protein encoded functions as a lens-specific transcription factor and plays an important role in vertebrate lens formation. Mutations in this gene are associated with anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis and congenital primary aphakia. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

LINC01389 (HGNC:50661): (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1389)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a DNA_binding_region Fork-head (size 94) in uniprot entity FOXE3_HUMAN there are 24 pathogenic changes around while only 3 benign (89%) in NM_012186.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.987

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 117 of the FOXE3 protein (p.Asn117Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with bilateral congenital cataracts (PMID: 27218149). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372169). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FOXE3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
