GeneDx RCV000255145 SCV000321780 pathogenic not provided 2022-01-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Published functional studies demonstrate p.(R84C) interferes with the DNA-binding ability of the IRF6 protein (Little et al., 2009; Kondo et al., 2002); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 18617879, 23406900, 15472655, 25547932, 22488974, 25548624, 26346622, 25489771, 12219090, 28945736, 28795449, 23154410, 31488442, 19036739, 27535533)
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV002227986 SCV000832675 pathogenic Orofacial cleft 6, susceptibility to; Popliteal pterygium syndrome; Van der Woude syndrome 2023-07-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 84 of the IRF6 protein (p.Arg84Cys). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with popliteal pterygium syndrome (PMID: 18617879, 22488974, 25547932, 25548624). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects IRF6 function (PMID: 19036739). 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 IRF6 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3414).

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004554583 SCV004117344 pathogenic IRF6-related condition 2024-04-05 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The IRF6 c.250C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg84Cys. This variant has been reported to be pathogenic for IRF6-related disorders (Kosaki et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22488974; Leslie et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26346622; Ratbi et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25547932; Mubungu et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25548624). In addition, different missense variants impacting the same amino acid (p.Arg84His, p.Arg84Gly, p.Arg84Pro, and p.Arg84Leu) have also been documented to be pathogenic for IRF6-related disorders (Human Gene Mutation Database, http://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk/ac/index.php). The c.250C>T (p.Arg84Cys) variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
