Genes affected

ARHGEF15 (HGNC:15590): (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 15) Rho GTPases play a fundamental role in numerous cellular processes that are initiated by extracellular stimuli that work through G protein-coupled receptors. This gene encodes a protein that functions as a specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor for RhoA. It also interacts with ephrin A4 in vascular smooth muscle cells. Two alternatively spliced transcripts variants that encode the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.37).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.21 with no splicing effect.

This sequence change affects codon 729 of the ARHGEF15 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ARHGEF15 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs766931220, gnomAD 0.008%). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 530536). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ARHGEF15-related conditions. -
