Genes affected
ZNF423 (HGNC:16762): (zinc finger protein 423) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein that belongs to the family of Kruppel-like C2H2 zinc finger proteins. It functions as a DNA-binding transcription factor by using distinct zinc fingers in different signaling pathways. Thus, it is thought that this gene may have multiple roles in signal transduction during development. Mutations in this gene are associated with nephronophthisis-14 and Joubert syndrome-19. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

The ZNF423 p.Gly427Val variant was not identified in the literature but was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs34425379), LOVD 3.0 and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by EGL Genetic Diagnostics and as likely benign by Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 136 of 282704 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0004811 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 116 of 24916 chromosomes (freq: 0.004656), Other in 4 of 7216 chromosomes (freq: 0.000554), Latino in 14 of 35438 chromosomes (freq: 0.000395) and European (non-Finnish) in 2 of 129102 chromosomes (freq: 0.000015), but was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), or South Asian populations. The p.Gly427 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence however three of four in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing and the creation of a new 5' splice site. However, this has not been confirmed by RNA analysis and is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
