Genes affected
IRF6 (HGNC:6121): (interferon regulatory factor 6) This gene encodes a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. Family members share a highly-conserved N-terminal helix-turn-helix DNA-binding domain and a less conserved C-terminal protein-binding domain. The encoded protein may be a transcriptional activator. Mutations in this gene can cause van der Woude syndrome and popliteal pterygium syndrome. Mutations in this gene are also associated with non-syndromic orofacial cleft type 6. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 15, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 45 of the IRF6 protein (p.Arg45Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs121434229, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of IRF6-related conditions (PMID: 14618417, 36901693; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3421). 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 with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect IRF6 function (PMID: 28945736). This variant disrupts the p.Arg45 amino acid residue in IRF6. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with IRF6-related conditions (PMID: 14618417, 18506368, 36901693), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -
