Genes affected
IFT43 (HGNC:29669): (intraflagellar transport 43) This gene encodes a subunit of the intraflagellar transport complex A (IFT-A). IFT-A is a multiprotein complex that plays an important role in cilia assembly and maintenance by mediating retrograde ciliary transport. Mutations in this gene are a cause of cranioectodermal dysplasia-3 (CED3), also known as Sensenbrenner syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg25*) in the IFT43 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in IFT43 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21378380, 28400947). This variant is present in population databases (rs780404339, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with IFT43-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558754). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
