Description

Variant summary: ALX4 c.16dupT (p.Cys6LeufsX30) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.4e-05 in 215370 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.16dupT in individuals affected with Parietal Foramina 2 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.
