Homology modeling of protein structure points to a variable degree of impaired DNA binding caused by missense variants in these domains probably leading to Loss of Function (LoF). Putative partial LoF may present with a less distinctive phenotype than complete LoF, as seen in truncating variants, which presents with an extensive variability in the phenotypic spectrum. Our data do not support a clear genotype to phenotype correlation.
