RCV003103895 | SCV001196641 | uncertain significance | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal dominant 2; Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis | 2019-05-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant results in a copy number gain of the genomic region encompassing exons 1-13 of the TERT gene, which includes the initiator codon. The 5' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. The 3' boundary is likely confined to intron 13 of the TERT gene. As the precise location of this event is unknown, it may be in tandem or it may be located elsewhere in the genome. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TERT-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated for this variant, and the functional significance of the affected amino acid(s) is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
