Genes affected
EXOC6B (HGNC:17085): (exocyst complex component 6B) This gene encodes a protein which is a part of the evolutionarily conserved exocyst, a multimeric protein complex necessary for exocytosis, which in turn, is crucial for cell growth, polarity and migration. Disruption of this gene may be associated with phenotypes exhibiting multiple symptoms including intellectual disability and developmental delay (DD). [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]

Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1801-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides before coding exon 18 of the EXOC6B gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
