Genes affected

MORC2 (HGNC:23573): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a member of the Microrchidia (MORC) protein superfamily. The encoded protein is known to regulate the condensation of heterochromatin in response to DNA damage and play a role in repressing transcription. The protein has been found to regulate the activity of ATP citrate lyase via specific interaction with this enzyme in the cytosol of lipogenic breast cancer cells. The protein also plays a role in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

MORC2-AS1 (HGNC:26662): (MORC2 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -11 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.88).
• BP6: Variant 22-30928100-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr22-30928100-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 475591.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-5.32 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000192 (28/1461808) while in subpopulation MID AF= 0.00052 (3/5766). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000141. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 17 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck.
