Genes affected

MAF (HGNC:6776): (MAF bZIP transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding, leucine zipper-containing transcription factor that acts as a homodimer or as a heterodimer. Depending on the binding site and binding partner, the encoded protein can be a transcriptional activator or repressor. This protein plays a role in the regulation of several cellular processes, including embryonic lens fiber cell development, increased T-cell susceptibility to apoptosis, and chondrocyte terminal differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of juvenile-onset pulverulent cataract as well as congenital cerulean cataract 4 (CCA4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 9 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_005360.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 22 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 7 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.1779 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.24854 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to cerulean cataract, Fine-Lubinsky syndrome, cataract 21 multiple types, Ayme-Gripp syndrome, pulverulent cataract, cataract - microcornea syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.893
• PP5: Variant 16-79599715-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-79599715-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 374075.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
