Genes affected
MITF (HGNC:7105): (melanocyte inducing transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. The encoded protein regulates melanocyte development and is responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 15, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 226 of the MITF protein (p.Glu226Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs147682682, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MITF-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 547533). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MITF protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In 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. -
MITF-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 10, 2024The MITF c.676G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu226Lys. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0026% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 28, 2024The c.676G>A (p.E226K) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the MITF gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 676, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 226 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
