Genes affected

FBXL4 (HGNC:13601): (F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 4) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family, which are characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. F-box proteins constitute one subunit of modular E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, called SCF complexes, which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box domain mediates protein-protein interactions and binds directly to S-phase kinase-associated protein 1. In addition to an F-box domain, the encoded protein contains at least 9 tandem leucine-rich repeats. The ubiquitin ligase complex containing the encoded protein may function in cell-cycle control by regulating levels of lysine-specific demethylase 4A. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.55).
• BP6: Variant 6-98917530-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-98917530-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 437617.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr6-98917530-A-G is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.835 with no splicing effect.

The NM_012160.4:c.702T>C (NP_036292.2:p.Leu234=) [GRCH38: NC_000006.12:g.98917530A>G] variant in FBXL4 gene is interpretated to be a Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets one or more of the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. BP4:Computational evidence/predictors indicate no impact on the FBXL4 structure, function, or protein-protein interaction. BP7:The variant is silent with non predicted splice impact. Based on this evidence code ClinGen Pathogenicity Calculator (PMID:28081714) suggested that the variant is Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence. -
