Genes affected
GRHL2 (HGNC:2799): (grainyhead like transcription factor 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that can act as a homodimer or as a heterodimer with either GRHL1 or GRHL3. Defects in this gene are a cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 28 (DFNA28).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.88).
BP6
Variant 8-101636940-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr8-101636940-A-G is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 163649.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0042 (640/152202) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0144 (596/41532). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0134. There are 5 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 299 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 5 AD,AR,Unknown gene
