Genes affected
FBXL4 (HGNC:13601): (F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 4) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family, which are characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. F-box proteins constitute one subunit of modular E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, called SCF complexes, which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box domain mediates protein-protein interactions and binds directly to S-phase kinase-associated protein 1. In addition to an F-box domain, the encoded protein contains at least 9 tandem leucine-rich repeats. The ubiquitin ligase complex containing the encoded protein may function in cell-cycle control by regulating levels of lysine-specific demethylase 4A. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points.

PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 24 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.55467 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.2845 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Leigh syndrome, mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 13.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.018869966).
BP6
Variant 6-98917495-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-98917495-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 437626.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000722 (110/152320) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00143 (97/68022). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0012. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 51 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

The NM_012160.4:c.737T>C (NP_036292.2:p.Ile246Thr) [GRCH38: NC_000006.12:g.98917495A>G] variant in FBXL4 gene is interpretated to be a Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets one or more of the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. BP4:Computational evidence/predictors indicate no impact on the FBXL4 structure, function, or protein-protein interaction. Based on this evidence code ClinGen Pathogenicity Calculator (PMID:28081714) suggested that the variant is Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence. -
