Genes affected
MAX (HGNC:6913): (MYC associated factor X) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLHZ) family of transcription factors. It is able to form homodimers and heterodimers with other family members, which include Mad, Mxi1 and Myc. Myc is an oncoprotein implicated in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. The homodimers and heterodimers compete for a common DNA target site (the E box) and rearrangement among these dimer forms provides a complex system of transcriptional regulation. Mutations of this gene have been reported to be associated with hereditary pheochromocytoma. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000493 (72/1461882) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0000612 (68/1112012). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000049. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 32 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 34. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 72 AD gene.
