Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 5P and 1B. PM2PM5PP5BP4
The NM_006164.5(NFE2L2):c.235G>C(p.Glu79Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E79K) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.
NFE2L2 (HGNC:7782): (NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2) This gene encodes a transcription factor which is a member of a small family of basic leucine zipper (bZIP) proteins. The encoded transcription factor regulates genes which contain antioxidant response elements (ARE) in their promoters; many of these genes encode proteins involved in response to injury and inflammation which includes the production of free radicals. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been characterized for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrnull-null-null-null is described in UniProt as null.
PP5
Variant 2-177234082-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-177234082-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 376465.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.41625625). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
