Genes affected
PAX4 (HGNC:8618): (paired box 4) This gene is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of this gene family typically contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. These genes play critical roles during fetal development and cancer growth. The paired box 4 gene is involved in pancreatic islet development and mouse studies have demonstrated a role for this gene in differentiation of insulin-producing beta cells.

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedliterature onlyOMIMJul 01, 2007- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteJul 16, 2023Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0105 - The mechanism of disease for this gene is not clearly established. Loss of function has been suggested as the mechanism of disease, but dominant negative has not been excluded (PMID: 17426099). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to tryptophan. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.001 for a dominant condition (14 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (12 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated homeodomain (PMID: 17426099). (I) 0704 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Arg164Gln) has been observed as heterozygous in several members of a large family with type 2 diabetes mellitus or impaired glucose tolerance (PMID: 32801813). This variant has also been classified as a VUS by two clinical laboratoies in ClinVar and in the literature (PMID: 34135026). (SP) 0803 - This variant has limited previous evidence of pathogenicity in an unrelated individual. This variant has been observed in three members of one family with type 2 diabetes mellitus and one member with impaired glucose tolerance, but was not observed in two other members of this family who also had impaired glucose tolerance (PMID: 17426099) (SP) 0906 - Segregation evidence for this variant is inconclusive. This variant has been observed in three members of one family with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 1 member with impaired glucose tolerance, but was not observed in another two family members with impaired glucose tolerance (PMID: 32801813). (I) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. This variant has been shown to reduce the repression of insulin activity compared to WT cells (PMID: 17426099). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 08, 2023In 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 sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAX4 function (PMID: 17426099, 25951767). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13793). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (PMID: 17426099). This variant is present in population databases (rs121917718, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 164 of the PAX4 protein (p.Arg164Trp). -
