RCV000489988 | SCV000577850 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2015-04-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The E1787Q variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The E1787Q variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The E1787Q variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Additionally, missense variants in nearby residues (R1781C, D1792G) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with cardiomyopathy (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein.Therefore, this variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant, however the possibility that it is a benign variant cannot be excluded |
