Genes affected
RUNX2 (HGNC:10472): (RUNX family transcription factor 2) This gene is a member of the RUNX family of transcription factors and encodes a nuclear protein with an Runt DNA-binding domain. This protein is essential for osteoblastic differentiation and skeletal morphogenesis and acts as a scaffold for nucleic acids and regulatory factors involved in skeletal gene expression. The protein can bind DNA both as a monomer or, with more affinity, as a subunit of a heterodimeric complex. Two regions of potential trinucleotide repeat expansions are present in the N-terminal region of the encoded protein, and these and other mutations in this gene have been associated with the bone development disorder cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD). Transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms result from the use of alternate promoters as well as alternate splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Cleidocranial dysostosis Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 11, 2019Variant summary: RUNX2 c.90delC (p.Ser31ProfsX9) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay (NMD), which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. However, downstream from the variant, there is a second ATG codon in an appropriate context for translational initiation, and at least one in vitro study has described that a construct containing only the second ATG codon (i.e. Met39) was nearly as active as the WT construct containing both; on the other hand, the same study demonstrated that deletion of the first 38 amino acid residues led to a partial decrease in transactivation activity (PMID: 9632804). The variant was observed in 1/31166 control chromosomes (gnomAD database, genome dataset). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.90delC in individuals affected with Cleidocranial Dysplasia (CCD) and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. However, different variant, affecting the same nucleotide position, and resulting in a similar protein level change (i.e. a frameshift), RUNX2 c.90dupC (p.Ser31Leufs), has been described in the literature in a proband with mild CCD, and with significant intrafamilial variability in expressivity, leading the authors to interpret this variant as a hypomorphic allele, which could be possibly explained by the utilization of the downstream ATG codon for translational initiation (PMID: 10545612). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant of interest could possibly represent a hypomorphic variant associated with milder phenotype, or potentially even a typical truncating variant associated with a more severe phenotype (based on NMD), therefore it was classified as likely pathogenic. -
