Genes affected
HESX1 (HGNC:4877): (HESX homeobox 1) This gene encodes a conserved homeobox protein that is a transcriptional repressor in the developing forebrain and pituitary gland. Mutations in this gene are associated with septooptic dysplasia, HESX1-related growth hormone deficiency, and combined pituitary hormone deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 160 of the HESX1 protein (p.Arg160Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs28936702, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive septo-optic dysplasia (PMID: 9620767, 25500790, 27000987, 33098107). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as Arg53Cys. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7691). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HESX1 function (PMID: 9620767, 11748154, 19093031, 25910213). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
