RCV000186713 | SCV000240279 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2014-10-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | c.-35 G>A in exon 1 of the ADSL gene (NM_000026.2) The c.-35 G>A sequence change in the 5' untranslated region of the ADSL gene has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The c.-35 G>A variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Although this variant is not expected to alter the ATG initiation codon or Kozak sequence, other regulatory mutations have been reported in the ADSL gene in association with ADSL deficiency. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in EPILEPSY panel(s). |
