RCV001449799 | SCV001653082 | likely pathogenic | Bohring-Opitz syndrome | 2020-07-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Lys523X variant in ASXL1 has not been previously reported in individuals with Bohring-Opitz syndrome and was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 523, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the ASXL1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Bohring-Opitz syndrome. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant Bohring-Opitz syndrome.
