Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_001083962.2(TCF4):​c.1727G>T​(p.Arg576Leu) 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 pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R576Q) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

TCF4 (HGNC:11634): (transcription factor 4) This gene encodes transcription factor 4, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor. The encoded protein recognizes an Ephrussi-box ('E-box') binding site ('CANNTG') - a motif first identified in immunoglobulin enhancers. This gene is broadly expressed, and may play an important role in nervous system development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome. In addition, an intronic CTG repeat normally numbering 10-37 repeat units can expand to >50 repeat units and cause Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

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

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 20 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_001083962.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr18-55228999-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 381549.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.948
• PP5: Variant 18-55228999-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-55228999-C-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1470528.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 576 of the TCF4 protein (p.Arg576Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TCF4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1470528). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TCF4 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg576 amino acid residue in TCF4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19235238, 22460224, 23033978). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
