Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with White-Sutton syndrome (MIM#616364). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0205 - Variant is predicted to result in a truncated protein (premature termination codon is NOT located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction) with less than 1/3 of the protein sequence affected. (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0701 - Other protein truncating variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (DECIPHER). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported multiple times as pathogenic, where a majority of individuals were de novo. A single case was reported to be maternally inherited, with limited clinical information provided for the mother (ClinVar, DECIPHER). (SP) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Frameshift variant is predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported in the predicted truncated region. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000224726 / PMID: 26942287). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

not provided Pathogenic:3
Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 257 amino acids are replaced with 3 different amino acids, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26942287, 31981491, 31452935, 34215294, 31136090, 31782611) -
This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has been observed to be de novo in individuals affected with POGZ-related conditions (PMID: 26942287). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224726). This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the POGZ gene (p.Glu1154Thrfs*4). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 257 amino acids of the POGZ protein. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.3456_3457delAG variant, located in coding exon 18 of the POGZ gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3456 to 3457, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E1154Tfs*4). This alteration was detected as de novo occurrences in two individuals with intellectual disability and developmental delay (Stessman HAF et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 2016 Mar;98:541-552). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a likely pathogenic variant. -
POGZ-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The POGZ c.3456_3457delAG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Glu1154Thrfs*4). This variant was reported as a recurrent de novo event in individuals with White-Sutton syndrome (see, for example, Stessman et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26942287; Assia Batzir et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31782611). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in POGZ are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
