Genes affected
APEX1 (HGNC:587): (apurinic/apyrimidinic endodeoxyribonuclease 1) The APEX gene encodes the major AP endonuclease in human cells. It encodes the APEX endonuclease, a DNA repair enzyme with apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) activity. Such AP activity sites occur frequently in DNA molecules by spontaneous hydrolysis, by DNA damaging agents or by DNA glycosylases that remove specific abnormal bases. The AP sites are the most frequent pre-mutagenic lesions that can prevent normal DNA replication. Splice variants have been found for this gene; all encode the same protein. Disruptions in the biological functions related to APEX are associated with many various malignancies and neurodegenerative diseases.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2019]

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=-0.83).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0091 (1386/152378) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0317 (1319/41582). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0303. There are 21 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 649 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 1386 AD gene.
