Genes affected

ZEB2 (HGNC:14881): (zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Zfh1 family of 2-handed zinc finger/homeodomain proteins. It is located in the nucleus and functions as a DNA-binding transcriptional repressor that interacts with activated SMADs. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hirschsprung disease/Mowat-Wilson syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

  Inheritance: AD Classification: DEFINITIVE, STRONG Submitted by: Ambry Genetics, ClinGen, Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), G2P

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-144398380-GC-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-144398380-GC-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 534632.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in ZEB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16053902). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with ZEB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 534632). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala936Profs*41) in the ZEB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
