Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PM2PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001375380.1(EBF3):c.625C>T(p.Arg209Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R209Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect as R209W results in mislocalization of the EBF3 protein and impaired association with chromatin (Harms et al., 2016); Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34050706, 32637629, 28017373)
DNA sequence analysis of the EBF3 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.625C>T, in exon 7 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg209Trp. This is a novel sequence change that is not present in the population databases (ExAC, gnomAD). The p.Arg209Trp change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in the DNA-binding domain of the EBF3 protein where all other missense pathogenic variants have been described to date. The p.Arg209Trp substitution appears to be possibly damaging using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). This variant has previously been described in two symptomatic siblings with ataxia, ID, speech delay, motor developmental delay, seizures where functional studies were performed that demonstrated a likely defect in protein function (Harms et al.,2017). This sequence change is the likely cause of this phenotype, however functional studies have not been performed to prove this conclusively.
