Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000008806 SCV002570804 pathogenic Branchiootic syndrome 3 2022-07-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: SIX1 c.386A>G (p.Tyr129Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Homeobox domain (IPR001356) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251416 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.386A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Branchiootic Syndrome 3 and fully co-segregated with disease in a large kindred (Ruf_2004, Ito_2006, Noguchi_2011, Nishio_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function demonstrated the variant significantly reduced the binding activity of Six1 to DNA, and inhibited the ability of the SIX1-EYA complex to activate transcription (Ruf_2004, Patrick_2009). Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Invitae RCV002512918 SCV003442337 pathogenic Branchiootic syndrome 3; Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 23 2023-12-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 129 of the SIX1 protein (p.Tyr129Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs104894478, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with branchiootorenal spectrum disorders (PMID: 12843324, 15141091, 16652090, 21254961, 21280147). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8308). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SIX1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SIX1 function (PMID: 15141091, 19497856). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003390661 SCV004112716 likely pathogenic SIX1-related condition 2023-11-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The SIX1 c.386A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr129Cys. This variant has been reported to segregate with branchiootic syndrome (BOS) in one large family with 18 affected individuals and was also found in two additional individuals with BOS from two unrelated families (Ruf et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15141091; Ito et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16652090; Noguchi et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21254961). Functional experiments found this variant reduced DNA binding activity (Ruf et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15141091; Patrick et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19497856). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/14-61115522-T-C). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic.
