RCV000817566 | SCV000958133 | pathogenic | Amyloidosis, hereditary systemic 1 | 2024-08-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 54 of the TTR protein (p.Arg54Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis) (PMID: 22187309, 22973891; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as Arg34Gly. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 660385). 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 TTR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg54 amino acid residue in TTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9605286, 21692911, 22745357). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
