RCV004018265 | SCV004847289 | pathogenic | Capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation syndrome | 2024-02-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Val809CysfsX26 variant in EPHB4 was identified through WGS analysis in an adult with liver arteriovenous malformation, skin telangiectasias, and epistaxis by the Broad Institute Rare Genomes Project. It 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 809 and leads to a premature termination codon 26 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the EPHB4 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant CM-AVM. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant CM-AVM. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting. |
