RCV000485796 | SCV000566233 | pathogenic | not provided | 2015-04-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.703delC deletion in the FOXG1 gene causes a frameshift starting with codon Leucine 235, changesthis amino acid to a Serine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 6 of the new reading frame,denoted p.Leu235SerfsX6. This variant replaces the last 255 amino acid residues with 5 incorrect aminoacid residues and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Althoughthis deletion has not been previously reported to our knowledge, other frameshift variants in the FOXG1protein have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with FOXG1-relateddisorders (Stenson et al., 2014). Therefore the c.703delC variant is interpreted as pathogenic. |
