Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points: 0P and 20B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_001271938.2(MEGF8):​c.7421G>A​(p.Arg2474His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00493 in 1,610,068 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 24 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R2474C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
MEGF8 (HGNC:3233): (multiple EGF like domains 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0077979267).
BP6
Variant 19-42375658-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-42375658-G-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 473346.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00322 (490/152230) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.00642 (31/4828). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00465. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 220 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 2 AR gene
