Genes affected
FOXG1 (HGNC:3811): (forkhead box G1) This locus encodes a member of the fork-head transcription factor family. The encoded protein, which functions as a transcriptional repressor, is highly expressed in neural tissues during brain development. Mutations at this locus have been associated with Rett syndrome and a diverse spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders defined as part of the FOXG1 syndrome. This gene is disregulated in many types of cancer and is the target of multiple microRNAs that regulate the proliferation of tumor cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 210 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 14-28767778-GA-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-28767778-GA-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 471469.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 30, 2017For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different truncation downstream of this variant (p.Gly169Alafs*23) has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 25356899, Invitae). This suggests that deletion of this region of the FOXG1 protein is causative of disease. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a FOXG1-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the FOXG1 gene (p.Glu167Glyfs*25). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 323 amino acids of the FOXG1 protein. -
