RCV003509072 | SCV004299633 | uncertain significance | Fabry disease | 2023-12-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 288 of the GLA protein (p.Ala288Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Fabry disease (PMID: 7531540, 15776423, 30477121). 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 expected to disrupt GLA protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLA function (PMID: 22773828). This variant disrupts the p.Ala288 amino acid residue in GLA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GLA-related conditions (PMID: 7531540, 12175777, 30477121), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. |
