Genes affected

PAX6 (HGNC:8620): (paired box 6) This gene encodes paired box protein Pax-6, one of many human homologs of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. In addition to a conserved paired box domain, a hallmark feature of this gene family, the encoded protein also contains a homeobox domain. Both domains are known to bind DNA and function as regulators of gene transcription. Activity of this protein is key in the development of neural tissues, particularly the eye. This gene is regulated by multiple enhancers located up to hundreds of kilobases distant from this locus. Mutations in this gene or in the enhancer regions can cause ocular disorders such as aniridia and Peter's anomaly. Use of alternate promoters and alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Interestingly, inclusion of a particular alternate coding exon has been shown to increase the length of the paired box domain and alter its DNA binding specificity. Consequently, isoforms that carry the shorter paired box domain regulate a different set of genes compared to the isoforms carrying the longer paired box domain. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2019]

This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the PAX6 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PAX6 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with aniridia (PMID: 28321846; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430981). Studies have shown that this variant is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (PMID: 30315214). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
