RCV001033406 | SCV001196713 | uncertain significance | Frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 1; Paget disease of bone 2, early-onset | 2019-12-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon 8 of the SQSTM1 gene. The 5' boundary is likely confined to intron 7. The 3' end of this event is unknown as it extends through the termination codon beyond the assayed region for this gene and may encompass additional genes. While this deletion is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated protein product or disrupt mRNA translation. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SQSTM1-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant 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. |
