RCV001961656 | SCV002250303 | uncertain significance | Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form; Congenital myotonia, autosomal dominant form | 2021-05-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Nucleotide substitutions within 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, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CLCN1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 865 of the CLCN1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CLCN1 protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 22, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. 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. |
