Genes affected

PAX6 (HGNC:8620): (paired box 6) This gene encodes paired box protein Pax-6, one of many human homologs of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. In addition to a conserved paired box domain, a hallmark feature of this gene family, the encoded protein also contains a homeobox domain. Both domains are known to bind DNA and function as regulators of gene transcription. Activity of this protein is key in the development of neural tissues, particularly the eye. This gene is regulated by multiple enhancers located up to hundreds of kilobases distant from this locus. Mutations in this gene or in the enhancer regions can cause ocular disorders such as aniridia and Peter's anomaly. Use of alternate promoters and alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Interestingly, inclusion of a particular alternate coding exon has been shown to increase the length of the paired box domain and alter its DNA binding specificity. Consequently, isoforms that carry the shorter paired box domain regulate a different set of genes compared to the isoforms carrying the longer paired box domain. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2019]

ENSG00000285283 (HGNC:):

PAUPAR (HGNC:49670): (PAX6 upstream antisense RNA) This gene is thought to produce a functional long non-coding RNA. Knockdown of this transcript results in genome-wide changes in gene expression, particularly of cell cyle genes, indicating a role in regulating differentiation. This transcript may bind to the promoter region of target genes and may also interact with the transcription factor Pax6 (paired box 6). [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.75).
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (EAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.286 is higher than 0.05.
