Genes affected
EFEMP2 (HGNC:3219): (EGF containing fibulin extracellular matrix protein 2) A large number of extracellular matrix proteins have been found to contain variations of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain and have been implicated in functions as diverse as blood coagulation, activation of complement and determination of cell fate during development. The protein encoded by this gene contains four EGF2 domains and six calcium-binding EGF2 domains. This gene is necessary for elastic fiber formation and connective tissue development. Defects in this gene are cause of an autosomal recessive cutis laxa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.52).
BP6
Variant 11-65871992-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr11-65871992-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 472812.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.685 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00347 (528/152228) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.012 (498/41518). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0111. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 263 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 2 AR,AD gene
