RCV003628415 | SCV004504238 | likely pathogenic | Retinoblastoma | 2024-04-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the RB1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RB1 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with retinoblastoma (Invitae). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 14, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (Invitae). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
