Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP5

The NM_005360.5(MAF):​c.176C>T​(p.Pro59Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P59H) has been classified as Pathogenic.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 30)
• Consequence: MAF NM_005360.5 missense
• Clinical Significance: Pathogenic no assertion criteria provided P:2
• Conservation: PhyloP100: 8.85

Genes affected

MAF (HGNC:6776): (MAF bZIP transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding, leucine zipper-containing transcription factor that acts as a homodimer or as a heterodimer. Depending on the binding site and binding partner, the encoded protein can be a transcriptional activator or repressor. This protein plays a role in the regulation of several cellular processes, including embryonic lens fiber cell development, increased T-cell susceptibility to apoptosis, and chondrocyte terminal differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of juvenile-onset pulverulent cataract as well as congenital cerulean cataract 4 (CCA4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a region_of_interest Disordered (size 27) in uniprot entity MAF_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_005360.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-79599727-G-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP5: Variant 16-79599727-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-79599727-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 162516.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars. Variant chr16-79599727-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
