Genes affected
WWOX (HGNC:12799): (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
MAF (HGNC:6776): (MAF bZIP transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding, leucine zipper-containing transcription factor that acts as a homodimer or as a heterodimer. Depending on the binding site and binding partner, the encoded protein can be a transcriptional activator or repressor. This protein plays a role in the regulation of several cellular processes, including embryonic lens fiber cell development, increased T-cell susceptibility to apoptosis, and chondrocyte terminal differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of juvenile-onset pulverulent cataract as well as congenital cerulean cataract 4 (CCA4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.036941916).
BP6
Variant 16-79211779-G-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-79211779-G-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 506528.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000295 (431/1461636) while in subpopulation MID AF = 0.004 (23/5752). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00273. There are 4 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 263 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 89. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 4 AR,AD gene
