Genes affected
PAX2 (HGNC:8616): (paired box 2) PAX2 encodes paired box gene 2, one of many human homologues of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. The central feature of this transcription factor gene family is the conserved DNA-binding paired box domain. PAX2 is believed to be a target of transcriptional supression by the tumor suppressor gene WT1. Mutations within PAX2 have been shown to result in optic nerve colobomas and renal hypoplasia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

The frameshift variant c.76del(p.Val26CysfsTer3) in PAX2 gene has been observed in heterozygous state in individual(s) with clinical features of PAX2-related conditions (Bekheirnia et. al., 2017; Heidet et. al., 2017). It is found to be segregating in disease related individuals (Bekheirnia et. al., 2017). This variant is also known as c.70delG (p.G24fs). The observed variant is absent in gnomAD exomes database. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic (multiple submitters). This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Valine 26, changes this amino acid to Cysteine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 3 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Val26CysfsTer3. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PAX2 are known to be pathogenic (Barua et. al., 2014). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.004%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense variant In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.97; 3Cnet: 0.88). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000006327 /PMID: 2358466 /3billion dataset).The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least one similarly affected unrelated individual (PMID: 12815590, 16475226). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Gly324Val) has been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000458676 /PMID: 19006241). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val26Cysfs*3) in the PAX2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PAX2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11461952, 24676634). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of PAX2-related conditions (PMID: 27657687, 28566479). This variant is also known as c.70delG (p.G24fs). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13801). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The PAX2 c.76del (p.Val26CysfsTer3) variant causes a shift in the protein reading frame that is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. Loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay is expected. The p.Val26CysfsTer3 variant has been reported in a heterozygous state in at least six individuals with chronic kidney disease, renal malformations, and variable ocular phenotypes. The variant was confirmed de novo in three of these individuals and inherited from an affected parent in one individual (PMID: 21108633; 28566479; 32203253; 36549658). This variant is not observed in version 2.1.1 or version 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant was identified in a de novo state. Based on the available evidence, the c.76del (p.Val26CysfsTer3) variant is classified as pathogenic for PAX2-related disorder. -
