Genes affected

BCOR (HGNC:20893): (BCL6 corepressor) The protein encoded by this gene was identified as an interacting corepressor of BCL6, a POZ/zinc finger transcription repressor that is required for germinal center formation and may influence apoptosis. This protein selectively interacts with the POZ domain of BCL6, but not with eight other POZ proteins. Specific class I and II histone deacetylases (HDACs) have been shown to interact with this protein, which suggests a possible link between the two classes of HDACs. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome Y.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Collection Method: clinical testing

Loss-of-function variants in BCOR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15004558, 19367324). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BCOR-related disease. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1130Profs*12) in the BCOR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency).
