Genes affected
ARHGEF6 (HGNC:685): (Rac/Cdc42 guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6) Rho GTPases play a fundamental role in numerous cellular processes that are initiated by extracellular stimuli that work through G protein coupled receptors. The encoded protein belongs to a family of cytoplasmic proteins that activate the Ras-like family of Rho proteins by exchanging bound GDP for GTP. It may form a complex with G proteins and stimulate Rho-dependent signals. This protein is activated by PI3-kinase. Mutations in this gene can cause X-chromosomal non-specific cognitive disability.

The c.2035+5G>C variant in the ARHGEF6 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to damage or destroy the splice donor site in intron 19, and is expected to cause abnormal gene splicing. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change in this individual is unknown. The c.2035+5G>C variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.2035+5G>C as a variant of uncertain significance. -
