Genes affected
EPHA2 (HGNC:3386): (EPH receptor A2) This gene belongs to the ephrin receptor subfamily of the protein-tyrosine kinase family. EPH and EPH-related receptors have been implicated in mediating developmental events, particularly in the nervous system. Receptors in the EPH subfamily typically have a single kinase domain and an extracellular region containing a Cys-rich domain and 2 fibronectin type III repeats. The ephrin receptors are divided into 2 groups based on the similarity of their extracellular domain sequences and their affinities for binding ephrin-A and ephrin-B ligands. This gene encodes a protein that binds ephrin-A ligands. Mutations in this gene are the cause of certain genetically-related cataract disorders.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
BP6
Variant 1-16148553-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-16148553-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 259395.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-4.71 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00773 (1178/152398) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.0362 (554/15312). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0337. There are 21 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 609 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 21 AD,AR gene
