RCV002044068 | SCV002113048 | likely pathogenic | Autosomal recessive DOPA responsive dystonia | 2024-05-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 498 of the TH protein (p.Asp498Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1347919). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on TH protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Asp498 amino acid residue in TH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11160968, 15505183, 15747353). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. |
