A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the IRF6 gene. The L304P variant has been published previously, referencing patients tested at GeneDx, in association with van der Woude syndrome (Leslie et al., 2013). L304P was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. A missense variant in a nearby residue (L302P) has been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with IRF6-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

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. 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 IRF6 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418261). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Van der Woude syndrome or popliteal pterygium syndrome (PMID: 23154523; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 304 of the IRF6 protein (p.Leu304Pro). -
