dbSNP rs672601338: BHLHA9:p.Arg73Gln (chr17-1270781-G-A) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (10 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong

The NM_001164405.2(BHLHA9):c.218G>A(p.Arg73Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000152 in 1,317,564 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R73L) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

BHLHA9 (HGNC:35126): (basic helix-loop-helix family member a9) This gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix family. The encoded protein is a transcription factor involved in limb development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with mesoaxial synostotic syndactyly Malik-Percin type (MSSD). Copy number variation of a locus containing this gene has been linked to a form of split-hand/foot malformation with long bone deficiency (SHFLD3). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
