Genes affected
WWOX (HGNC:12799): (WW domain containing oxidoreductase) This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -14 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.63).
BP6
Variant 16-78432581-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-78432581-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 212617.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=1, Benign=3}.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.028 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00899 (1368/152252) while in subpopulation NFE AF= 0.00806 (548/68030). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0075. There are 13 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 757 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 13 AR gene
