Invitae | RCV001986207 | SCV002279877 | likely pathogenic | Multiple congenital exostosis | 2021-09-21 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 5-6 of the EXT1 gene. This variant would be expected to be in-frame, preserving the integrity of the reading frame. A similar copy number variant has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary multiple osteochondromatosis (Invitae). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant disrupts a region of the EXT1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Pro496Leu) have been observed in individuals with EXT1-related conditions (PMID: 10480354). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
