Genes affected
AFF4 (HGNC:17869): (ALF transcription elongation factor 4) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the AF4 family of transcription factors involved in leukemia. It is a component of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and MLL gene on chromosome 11 is found in infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia with ins(5;11)(q31;q31q23). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

This variant, c.516_518dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the AFF4 protein (p.Glu172_His173insGln), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AFF4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 591050). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
