Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_001174096.2(ZEB1):c.400C>G(p.Gln134Glu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000372 in 1,613,758 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
ZEB1 (HGNC:11642): (zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1) This gene encodes a zinc finger transcription factor. The encoded protein likely plays a role in transcriptional repression of interleukin 2. Mutations in this gene have been associated with posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy-3 and late-onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.397C>G (p.Q133E) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the ZEB1 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 397, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 133 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
