Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate

The NM_004387.4(NKX2-5):​c.536C>G​(p.Ser179Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S179F) has been classified as Pathogenic.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 32)
• Consequence: NKX2-5 NM_004387.4 missense
• Clinical Significance: Not reported in ClinVar
• Conservation: PhyloP100: 9.97

Genes affected

NKX2-5 (HGNC:2488): (NK2 homeobox 5) This gene encodes a homeobox-containing transcription factor. This transcription factor functions in heart formation and development. Mutations in this gene cause atrial septal defect with atrioventricular conduction defect, and also tetralogy of Fallot, which are both heart malformation diseases. Mutations in this gene can also cause congenital hypothyroidism non-goitrous type 5, a non-autoimmune condition. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 14) in uniprot entity NKX25_HUMAN there are 27 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_004387.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr5-173233008-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.857
