Genes affected

FOXG1 (HGNC:3811): (forkhead box G1) This locus encodes a member of the fork-head transcription factor family. The encoded protein, which functions as a transcriptional repressor, is highly expressed in neural tissues during brain development. Mutations at this locus have been associated with Rett syndrome and a diverse spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders defined as part of the FOXG1 syndrome. This gene is disregulated in many types of cancer and is the target of multiple microRNAs that regulate the proliferation of tumor cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a DNA_binding_region Fork-head (size 94) in uniprot entity FOXG1_HUMAN there are 38 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_005249.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the FOXG1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 90 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 66 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 3.7891 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Rett syndrome, congenital variant, FOXG1 disorder.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.977
• PP5: Variant 14-28768009-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-28768009-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 189620.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr14-28768009-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr14-28768009-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 244 of the FOXG1 protein (p.Arg244Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Rett syndrome (PMID: 21280142, 24901346). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189620). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FOXG1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FOXG1 function (PMID: 21280142, 22091895). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Centre for Population Genomics, CPG

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

This variant has been collected from RettBASE and curated to current modified ACMG/AMP criteria. Based on the classification scheme defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like Disorders Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines VCEP 3.0, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. At least the following criteria are met: This variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence in an individual with FOXG1 disorder without confirmation of paternity and maternity (PM6, PMID: 21280142). Occurs in the well-characterized Forkhead functional domain of FOXG1 (PM1). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact (REVEL score>= 0.75) (PP3). This variant is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the protein function (PS3_supporting, PMID: 21280142). -
