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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 18, 2021This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 187 of the PAX3 protein (p.Ser187Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs375978379, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PAX3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229126). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 12, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 22, 2015The p.Ser187Arg variant in PAX3 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 8/66740 of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP r s375978379). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest th at the p.Ser187Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is no t predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signifi cance of the p.Ser187Arg variant is uncertain. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 11, 2023The c.561C>G (p.S187R) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the PAX3 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 561, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 187 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
