Genes affected
DOCK6 (HGNC:19189): (dedicator of cytokinesis 6) This gene encodes a member of the dedicator of cytokinesis (DOCK) family of atypical guanine nucleotide exchange factors. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors interact with small GTPases and are components of intracellular signaling networks. The encoded protein is a group C DOCK protein and plays a role in actin cytoskeletal reorganization by activating the Rho GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1. Mutations in this gene are associated with Adams-Oliver syndrome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Variant summary: DOCK6 c.1362_1365delAACT (p.Thr455SerfsX24) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.8e-05 in 239156 control chromosomes. c.1362_1365delAACT has been observed in the homozygous state in siblings affected with Adams-Oliver Syndrome 2 (example: Maddirevula_2018). These data indicate that the variant is associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29620724). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183335). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

The c.1362_1365delAACT (p.T455Sfs*24) alteration, located in exon 12 (coding exon 12) of the DOCK6 gene, consists of a deletion of 4 nucleotides from position 1362 to 1365, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 24 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, this variant has an overall frequency of 0.005% (13/270528) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.022% (5/23052) of African/African American alleles. This variant has been identified in conjunction with other DOCK6 variants in individuals with features consistent with Adams-Oliver syndrome (Shaheen, 2011). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
