RCV000484388 | SCV000568374 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2017-03-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the ADSL gene. Functional studies revealed that the E80D variant decreased the stability of the protein however, enzyme activity appeared normal and the protein structure was not significantly affected. The E80D variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (I72V and D87E) have been reported in Human Gene Mutation Database in association with adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) deficiency (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. However, the E80D variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties and this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved.Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. |
