Genes affected
TBX4 (HGNC:11603): (T-box transcription factor 4) This gene is a member of a phylogenetically conserved family of genes that share a common DNA-binding domain, the T-box. T-box genes encode transcription factors involved in the regulation of developmental processes. This gene is the human homolog of mouse Tbx4, which is closely linked to Tbx2 on mouse chromosome 11. Similarly this gene, like TBX2, maps to human chromosome 17. Expression studies in mouse and chicken show that Tbx4 is expressed in developing hindlimb, but not in forelimb buds, suggesting a role for this gene in regulating limb development and specification of limb identity.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro371Leufs*8) in the TBX4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 175 amino acid(s) of the TBX4 protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PMID: 30029678, 30578397, 33066286). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548694). This variant disrupts a region of the TBX4 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg389Glnfs*30) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15106123). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. -
