Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -16 ACMG points: 0P and 16B. BA1BS2BP5_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The highest population minor allele frequency of the c.790-9T>C variant in TCF4 in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.006579 in the Amish population, which is higher than the ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders VCEP threshold (≥0.0003) for BA1, and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). The c.790-9T>C variant is observed in at least 2 unaffected individuals (internal database - GeneDx) (BS2). The c.790-9T>C variant is found in at least 3 patients with an alternate molecular basis of disease (internal database - GeneDx) (BP5_Strong). In summary, the c.790-9T>C variant in TCF4 is classified as benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BA1, BS2, BP5_Strong).

Genes affected
TCF4 (HGNC:11634): (transcription factor 4) This gene encodes transcription factor 4, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor. The encoded protein recognizes an Ephrussi-box ('E-box') binding site ('CANNTG') - a motif first identified in immunoglobulin enhancers. This gene is broadly expressed, and may play an important role in nervous system development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome. In addition, an intronic CTG repeat normally numbering 10-37 repeat units can expand to >50 repeat units and cause Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
