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

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_001083962.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), TCF4. . Gene score misZ 4.1035 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.5676 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with intellectual disability, corneal dystrophy, Fuchs endothelial, 3, autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy, Pitt-Hopkins syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.819

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TCF4-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with valine at codon 215 of the TCF4 protein (p.Phe215Val). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and valine. -
