Genes affected
PAX3 (HGNC:8617): (paired box 3) This gene is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of the PAX family typically contain a paired box domain and a paired-type homeodomain. These genes play critical roles during fetal development. Mutations in paired box gene 3 are associated with Waardenburg syndrome, craniofacial-deafness-hand syndrome, and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. The translocation t(2;13)(q35;q14), which represents a fusion between PAX3 and the forkhead gene, is a frequent finding in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Alternative splicing results in transcripts encoding isoforms with different C-termini. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.56).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00025 (38/152058) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00348 (18/5170). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00225. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 29 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 13 AR,AD,Unknown gene
