Genes affected
ARFGEF2 (HGNC:15853): (ADP ribosylation factor guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2) ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) play an important role in intracellular vesicular trafficking. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the activation of ARFs by accelerating replacement of bound GDP with GTP and is involved in Golgi transport. It contains a Sec7 domain, which may be responsible for its guanine-nucleotide exchange activity and also brefeldin A inhibition. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.020928323).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0000131 (2/152146) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.000386 (2/5184). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000683. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

The c.808G>A (p.A270T) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the ARFGEF2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 808, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 270 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
