Genes affected
PHOX2B (HGNC:9143): (paired like homeobox 2B) The DNA-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the paired family of homeobox proteins localized to the nucleus. The protein functions as a transcription factor involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations and the determination of neurotransmitter phenotype. The gene product is linked to enhancement of second messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydroylase, c-fos promoters and several enhancers, including cyclic amp-response element and serum-response element. Expansion of a 20 amino acid polyalanine tract in this protein by 5-13 aa has been associated with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.9).
BP6
Variant 4-41745984-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr4-41745984-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 467743.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-2.33 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000316 (35/1108904) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.000648 (15/23150). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000399. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 13 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 35 AD gene.
