Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_004429.5(EFNB1):c.101_114delCCGTATCCTGGAGC(p.Pro34LeufsTer36) variant causes a frameshift change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Craniofrontonasal syndrome Pathogenic:2
ACMG classification criteria: PVS1 strong, PM2 moderate -
The hemizygous p.Pro34LeufsTer36 variant in EFNB1 was identified by our study in one individual with hypertelorism, craniosynostosis, agenesis of the corpus callosum, and global developmental delay. Trio exome analysis showed this variant to be de novo. The p.Pro34LeufsTer36 variant in EFNB1 has not been previously reported in individuals with craniofrontonasal dysplasia. This variant was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 34 and leads to a premature termination codon 36 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the EFNB1 gene is an established disease mechanism in X-linked craniofrontonasal dysplasia. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for X-linked craniofrontonasal dysplasia. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS2_Moderate, PM2_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
