Genes affected

IRF6 (HGNC:6121): (interferon regulatory factor 6) This gene encodes a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. Family members share a highly-conserved N-terminal helix-turn-helix DNA-binding domain and a less conserved C-terminal protein-binding domain. The encoded protein may be a transcriptional activator. Mutations in this gene can cause van der Woude syndrome and popliteal pterygium syndrome. Mutations in this gene are also associated with non-syndromic orofacial cleft type 6. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

This sequence change deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 9 of the IRF6 mRNA (c.1368delC), causing a frameshift at codon 457. This is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay but it is expected to expected to alter the last 11 amino acids and extend the IRF6 protein by an additional 22 amino acids (p.Ser457Alafs*34). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with IRF6-related disease. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the disrupted amino acids is currently unknown. Multiple downstream frameshift variants that results in an extended protein product have been reported in individuals affected with van der Woude syndrome (PMID: PMID: 12219090, 23154523, 19282774). However these variants create a frameshifts and extensions that are different from the one created by this variant. Therefore the effect of this particular frameshift and extension is currently unknown. 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. -
