Genes affected

TCF4 (HGNC:11634): (transcription factor 4) This gene encodes transcription factor 4, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor. The encoded protein recognizes an Ephrussi-box ('E-box') binding site ('CANNTG') - a motif first identified in immunoglobulin enhancers. This gene is broadly expressed, and may play an important role in nervous system development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome. In addition, an intronic CTG repeat normally numbering 10-37 repeat units can expand to >50 repeat units and cause Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), TCF4. . Gene score misZ: 4.1035 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.5676 (greater than threshold 3.09). The gene has 42 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 70 curated benign missense variants. GenCC has associacion of the gene with intellectual disability, corneal dystrophy, Fuchs endothelial, 3, autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy, Pitt-Hopkins syndrome.
• PP5: Variant 18-55261488-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-55261488-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 208487.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
