Description

This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PMID: 18728071, 21671391, 29695756). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 578 of the TCF4 protein (p.Arg578His). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 93542). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TCF4 function (PMID: 22460224). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0").

Description

The p.Arg578His variant in TCF4 has been reported in an individual with a clinical phenotype suggestive of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PMID 18728071) (PP4). This variant appears to be de novo in this patient and has been reported in the de novo state (biological parentage unconfirmed) in at least two additional patients with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PMID 21671391) (PM6_strong, PS4_moderate). In vitro binding assays have shown that this variant impacts impacts protein function (PMID 22460224) (PS3_supporting). This variant is located in the basic Helix-Loop-Helix domain (bHLH) (PMID 17436254, 22045651) (PM1). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). The p.Arg578His variant in TCF4 is absent from gnomAD (PM2_supporting). In summary, the Arg578His variant in TCF4 is classified as Pathogenic for Pitt-Hopkins syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PM6_strong, PS4_moderate, PM1, PM2_supporting, PP3, PP4).
