Genes affected
MEF2C (HGNC:6996): (myocyte enhancer factor 2C) This locus encodes a member of the MADS box transcription enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) family of proteins, which play a role in myogenesis. The encoded protein, MEF2 polypeptide C, has both trans-activating and DNA binding activities. This protein may play a role in maintaining the differentiated state of muscle cells. Mutations and deletions at this locus have been associated with severe cognitive disability, stereotypic movements, epilepsy, and cerebral malformation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

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

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0311 (4741/152322) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.049 (3336/68024). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0477. There are 96 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 2179 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 4741 AD gene.
