Genes affected

GFAP (HGNC:4235): (glial fibrillary acidic protein) This gene encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development. Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a region_of_interest Tail (size 54) in uniprot entity GFAP_HUMAN there are 8 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (89%) in NM_002055.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
