Genes affected
KNL1 (HGNC:24054): (kinetochore scaffold 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the multiprotein assembly that is required for creation of kinetochore-microtubule attachments and chromosome segregation. The encoded protein functions as a scaffold for proteins that influence the spindle assembly checkpoint during the eukaryotic cell cycle and it interacts with at least five different kinetochore proteins and two checkpoint kinases. In adults, this gene is predominantly expressed in normal testes, various cancer cell lines and primary tumors from other tissues and is ubiquitously expressed in fetal tissues. This gene was originally identified as a fusion partner with the mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) gene in t(11;15)(q23;q14). Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive primary microcephaly-4 (MCPH4). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Additional splice variants have been described but their biological validity has not been confirmed. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.3).
BP6
Variant 15-40611469-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr15-40611469-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 434568.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000571 (87/152302) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.00209 (87/41582). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00174. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 35 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check.
