Genes affected

GDF6 (HGNC:4221): (growth differentiation factor 6) This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein is required for normal formation of some bones and joints in the limbs, skull, and axial skeleton. Mutations in this gene are associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome, microphthalmia, and Leber congenital amaurosis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

Multiple synostoses syndrome 4 Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics	Oct 15, 2018	This variant is interpreted as Pathogenic, for Multiple synostoses syndrome 4, autosomal dominant. The following ACMG Tag(s) were applied: PM2 => Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium. PP3 => Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product. PS3 => Well-established functional studies show a deleterious effect (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26643732). PP1-Strong => PP1 upgraded in strength to Strong (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26643732). -
