Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_005413.4(SIX3):​c.942A>C​(p.Ala314=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A314A) has been classified as Benign.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 30)
• Consequence: SIX3 NM_005413.4 synonymous
• Clinical Significance: Not reported in ClinVar
• Conservation: PhyloP100: 0.128

Genes affected

SIX3 (HGNC:10889): (SIX homeobox 3) This gene encodes a member of the sine oculis homeobox transcription factor family. The encoded protein plays a role in eye development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with holoprosencephaly type 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.62).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.128 with no splicing effect.
