Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001372066.1(TFAP2A):​c.716G>C​(p.Arg239Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R239Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

TFAP2A (HGNC:11742): (transcription factor AP-2 alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that binds the consensus sequence 5'-GCCNNNGGC-3'. The encoded protein functions as either a homodimer or as a heterodimer with similar family members. This protein activates the transcription of some genes while inhibiting the transcription of others. Defects in this gene are a cause of branchiooculofacial syndrome (BOFS). Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

TFAP2A-AS2 (HGNC:52289): (TFAP2A antisense RNA 2) The product of this intronless gene is a capped lncRNA that is nuclear-enriched and associated with chromatin. The encoded transcript may be involved in the regulation of developmental gene expression in a context-dependent manner, functioning as a repressor in non-pluripotent cells and an activator in pluripotent cells. Transcription of this gene is activated in 8-cell human embryos during the major wave of zygotic genome activation, independently of and prior to the activation of TFAP2A, an overlapping gene found on the opposite strand. Expression of this gene is characterized by high cell-to-cell variability in the cells of totipotent human embryos and in stable cell lines. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_001372066.1
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr6-10404562-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 18466.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 6-10404562-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-10404562-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 547798.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
