Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV003513685 SCV004300160 uncertain significance X-linked agammaglobulinemia with growth hormone deficiency 2023-11-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 544 of the BTK protein (p.Arg544Lys). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 16, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with agammaglobulinemia (PMID: 8834236, 19039656). This variant is also known as 1763G>A. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts the p.Arg544 amino acid residue in BTK. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11438999, 17765309, 27512878). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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.
