Description

Variant summary: PITX2 c.49A>T (p.Lys17X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been associated with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome in HGMD. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 250440 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.49A>T in individuals affected with Axenfeld-Rieger Syndrome Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
