Genes affected
SZT2 (HGNC:29040): (SZT2 subunit of KICSTOR complex) The protein encoded by this gene is expressed in the brain, predominantly in the parietal and frontal cortex as well as in dorsal root ganglia. It is localized to the peroxisome, and is implicated in resistance to oxidative stress. It likely functions by increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, but itself has no direct SOD activity. Studies in mice show that this gene confers low seizure threshold, and may also enhance epileptogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.53).
BP6
Variant 1-43431331-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-43431331-T-C is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 416955.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.735 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00117 (1705/1461192) while in subpopulation MID AF = 0.00937 (54/5764). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00737. There are 7 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 935 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
