Genes affected

NR3C1 (HGNC:7978): (nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 1) This gene encodes glucocorticoid receptor, which can function both as a transcription factor that binds to glucocorticoid response elements in the promoters of glucocorticoid responsive genes to activate their transcription, and as a regulator of other transcription factors. This receptor is typically found in the cytoplasm, but upon ligand binding, is transported into the nucleus. It is involved in inflammatory responses, cellular proliferation, and differentiation in target tissues. Mutations in this gene are associated with generalized glucocorticoid resistance. Alternative splicing of this gene results in transcript variants encoding either the same or different isoforms. Additional isoforms resulting from the use of alternate in-frame translation initiation sites have also been described, and shown to be functional, displaying diverse cytoplasm-to-nucleus trafficking patterns and distinct transcriptional activities (PMID:15866175).

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.7).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.135 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000205 (30/1461880) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00073 (29/39700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000522. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 17 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 30 AD gene.
