RCV003509857 | SCV004245049 | uncertain significance | Fabry disease | 2023-11-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 238 of the GLA protein (p.Ser238Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GLA-related conditions. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GLA protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant disrupts the p.Ser238 amino acid residue in GLA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18154965, 23935525). 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. |
