Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_003106.4(SOX2):​c.70_89delAACTCCACCGCGGCGGCGGC​(p.Asn24ArgfsTer65) variant causes a frameshift change. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★).

Genes affected
SOX2 (HGNC:11195): (SRY-box transcription factor 2) This intronless gene encodes a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. The product of this gene is required for stem-cell maintenance in the central nervous system, and also regulates gene expression in the stomach. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic nerve hypoplasia and with syndromic microphthalmia, a severe form of structural eye malformation. This gene lies within an intron of another gene called SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
SOX2-OT (HGNC:20209): (SOX2 overlapping transcript) This gene produces alternatively spliced long non-coding RNAs. These RNAs were observed to be upregulated in tumor cells and positively correlated to expression of the SRY-box 2 gene. Overexpression of these transcripts may promote cell proliferation.

Collection Method:clinical testing

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 94104). This variant is also known as c.70del20. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with bilateral anophthalmia or microphthalmia with or without additional features (PMID: 18285410, 24804704, 26250054, 27206652). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn24Argfs*65) in the SOX2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 294 amino acid(s) of the SOX2 protein. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant (PVS1_VS). It is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (PM2). The variant has been reported as pathogenic (PMID: 27206652, 26250054).Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The SOX2 c.70_89del20 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Asn24Argfs*65). This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with syndromic microphthalmia, and in at least 2 individuals was reported to have arisen de novo (Zenteno et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16283891; Suzuki et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24804704; Chacon-Camacho et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26250054). In one individual with normal eye size, other findings included facial dysmorphisms, ocular findings (alternating esotropia, inferior oblique overaction and hyperopia), and an enlarging suprasellar lesion (Blackburn et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30450772). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in SOX2 are expected to be pathogenic and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/94104). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
