Invitae RCV000541926 SCV000650053 pathogenic Rett syndrome, congenital variant 2022-02-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the FOXG1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr400*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19564653). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 471470). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with epilepsy, gross motor delays and no language abilities (PMID: 24836831). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly169Alafs*23) in the FOXG1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 321 amino acid(s) of the FOXG1 protein.

Athena Diagnostics Inc RCV001288608 SCV001475861 pathogenic not provided 2020-02-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant results in a shift of the reading frame, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene, and found in general population data at a frequency that is consistent with pathogenicity.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000541926 SCV004801467 pathogenic Rett syndrome, congenital variant 2017-04-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The FOXG1 c.506delG p.(Gly169AlafsTer23) variant causes a shift in the protein reading frame that is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. Loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay is expected. This variant has been identified in a de novo state in individuals with a phenotype consistent with Rett syndrome, congenital variant (Seltzer et al. 2014; Hamdan et al. 2014). This variant is not observed in version 2.1.1 of the Genome Aggregation Database. The variant was identified in a de novo state in the proband. Based on the available evidence, the c.506delG p.(Gly169AlafsTer23) variant is classified as pathogenic for Rett syndrome, congenital variant.
