RCV002517021 | SCV004176285 | likely benign | Pitt-Hopkins syndrome | 2023-12-06 | reviewed by expert panel | curation | The p.Thr138Ser variant in TCF4 is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). The p.Thr138Ser variant is observed in at least 3 unaffected individuals (internal database - GeneDx) (BS2). Computational analysis prediction tools suggest that the p.Thr138Ser variant does not have a deleterious impact; however this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (BP4). In the absence of other pathogenic evidence beyond PM2_Supporting, and because this variant has been observed in 3 unaffected individuals, the ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders Variant Curation Expert Panel has agreed to overrule the PM2_Supporting criterion. In summary, the p.Thr138Ser variant in TCF4 is classified as likely benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BS2, BP4). |

RCV000189720 | SCV000243368 | likely benign | not specified | 2016-04-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV002314769 | SCV000849270 | uncertain significance | Inborn genetic diseases | 2017-03-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.T138S variant (also known as c.413C>G), located in coding exon 6 of the TCF4 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 413. The threonine at codon 138 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV002517021 | SCV003283454 | uncertain significance | Pitt-Hopkins syndrome | 2022-07-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 138 of the TCF4 protein (p.Thr138Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TCF4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 207532). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
