Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -17 ACMG points: 0P and 17B. BP3BP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_003924.4(PHOX2B):​c.738_776delGGCCGCGGCAGCGGCGGCGGCGGCAGCGGCAGCGGCGGC​(p.Ala247_Ala259del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000636 in 1,288,314 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 58 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A246A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
PHOX2B (HGNC:9143): (paired like homeobox 2B) The DNA-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the paired family of homeobox proteins localized to the nucleus. The protein functions as a transcription factor involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations and the determination of neurotransmitter phenotype. The gene product is linked to enhancement of second messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydroylase, c-fos promoters and several enhancers, including cyclic amp-response element and serum-response element. Expansion of a 20 amino acid polyalanine tract in this protein by 5-13 aa has been associated with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
