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]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change deletes 1 nucleotide from exon 9 of the IRF6 mRNA (c.1195delG), causing a frameshift at codon 399. This creates a premature translational stop signal in the last exon of the IRF6 mRNA (p.Ala399Leufs*3). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 69 amino acids of the IRF6 protein. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a IRF6-related disease. A different truncation downstream of this variant (p.Arg412*) has been determined to be pathogenic, as it is one of the most common variants reported in individuals affected with Van der Woude syndrome (PMID: 12219090, 19282774, 23154523, 25784454). This suggests that deletion of this region of the IRF6 protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
