Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong

The NM_033343.4(LHX4):​c.569T>C​(p.Leu190Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L190R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
LHX4 (HGNC:21734): (LIM homeobox 4) This gene encodes a member of a large protein family which contains the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein is a transcription factor involved in the control of differentiation and development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in this gene cause combined pituitary hormone deficiency 4. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
ACBD6 (HGNC:23339): (acyl-CoA binding domain containing 6) Predicted to enable fatty-acyl-CoA binding activity and lipid binding activity. Predicted to be located in cytosol. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
LHX4-AS1 (HGNC:40982): (LHX4 antisense RNA 1)

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.98; 3Cnet: 0.95). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Leu190Arg) has been reported to be associated with LHX4 -related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000007509 / PMID: 18073311). However the evidence of pathogenicity is insufficient at this time. Therefore, this variant is classified as uncertain significance according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
