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]

This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the PHOX2B gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PHOX2B protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PHOX2B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 577171). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
