Genes affected
ATRX (HGNC:886): (ATRX chromatin remodeler) The protein encoded by this gene contains an ATPase/helicase domain, and thus it belongs to the SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodeling proteins. This protein is found to undergo cell cycle-dependent phosphorylation, which regulates its nuclear matrix and chromatin association, and suggests its involvement in the gene regulation at interphase and chromosomal segregation in mitosis. Mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked syndromes exhibiting cognitive disabilities as well as alpha-thalassemia (ATRX) syndrome. These mutations have been shown to cause diverse changes in the pattern of DNA methylation, which may provide a link between chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, and gene expression in developmental processes. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Submissions by phenotype

Alpha thalassemia-X-linked intellectual disability syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 28, 2024This sequence change affects codon 63 of the ATRX mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ATRX protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 3, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs587778082, gnomAD 0.004%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATRX-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133644). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
