Invitae | RCV000820005 | SCV000960697 | uncertain significance | Neurofibromatosis, type 2 | 2018-11-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a 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 NF2-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces proline with arginine at codon 102 of the NF2 protein (p.Pro102Arg). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and arginine. |
