Genes affected

MORC2 (HGNC:23573): (MORC family CW-type zinc finger 2) This gene encodes a member of the Microrchidia (MORC) protein superfamily. The encoded protein is known to regulate the condensation of heterochromatin in response to DNA damage and play a role in repressing transcription. The protein has been found to regulate the activity of ATP citrate lyase via specific interaction with this enzyme in the cytosol of lipogenic breast cancer cells. The protein also plays a role in lipogenesis and adipocyte differentiation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points.

PP2

Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, MORC2

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.14532626).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000144 (21/1461836) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.000232 (20/86258). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000153. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 15 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome at 7 AD gene.
