Genes affected

DCAF17 (HGNC:25784): (DDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 17) This gene encodes a nuclear transmembrane protein that associates with cullin 4A/damaged DNA binding protein 1 ubiquitin ligase complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -19 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.45).
• BP6: Variant 2-171468988-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-171468988-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 128891.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr2-171468988-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.324 with no splicing effect.
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (AFR) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.129 is higher than 0.05.

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
