Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 3P and 5B. PM1PP2BP4BS2

The NM_000474.4(TWIST1):c.94G>T(p.Gly32Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000566 in 1,413,902 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G32S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

TWIST1 (HGNC:12428): (twist family bHLH transcription factor 1) This gene encodes a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor that plays an important role in embryonic development. The encoded protein forms both homodimers and heterodimers that bind to DNA E box sequences and regulate the transcription of genes involved in cranial suture closure during skull development. This protein may also regulate neural tube closure, limb development and brown fat metabolism. This gene is hypermethylated and overexpressed in multiple human cancers, and the encoded protein promotes tumor cell invasion and metastasis, as well as metastatic recurrence. Mutations in this gene cause Saethre-Chotzen syndrome in human patients, which is characterized by craniosynostosis, ptosis and hypertelorism. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PM1

In a chain Twist-related protein 1 (size 201) in uniprot entity TWST1_HUMAN there are 39 pathogenic changes around while only 6 benign (87%) in NM_000474.4

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 31 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.057 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.22696 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Saethre-Chotzen syndrome, Sweeney-Cox syndrome, isolated brachycephaly, TWIST1-related craniosynostosis, isolated plagiocephaly, isolated scaphocephaly.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3558668).

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 6 AD gene.
