Genes affected
FGD4 (HGNC:19125): (FYVE, RhoGEF and PH domain containing 4) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton and cell shape. This protein contains an actin filament-binding domain, which together with its Dbl homology domain and one of its pleckstrin homology domains, can form microspikes. This protein can activate MAPK8 independently of the actin filament-binding domain, and it is also involved in the activation of CDC42 via the exchange of bound GDP for free GTP. The activation of CDC42 also enables this protein to play a role in mediating the cellular invasion of Cryptosporidium parvum, an intracellular parasite that infects the gastrointestinal tract. Mutations in this gene can cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4H (CMT4H), a disorder of the peripheral nervous system. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 13, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg577*) in the FGD4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FGD4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17564972). This variant is present in population databases (rs778377449, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FGD4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408261). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
