Genes affected

EYA1 (HGNC:3519): (EYA transcriptional coactivator and phosphatase 1) This gene encodes a member of the eyes absent (EYA) family of proteins. The encoded protein may play a role in the developing kidney, branchial arches, eye, and ear. Mutations of this gene have been associated with branchiootorenal dysplasia syndrome, branchiootic syndrome, and sporadic cases of congenital cataracts and ocular anterior segment anomalies. A similar protein in mice can act as a transcriptional activator. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Intronic deletion that alters the +5 splice site in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease, and both splice predictors and evolutionary conservation support a deleterious effect, although in the absence of functional evidence the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
