Invitae | RCV001838197 | SCV001204589 | uncertain significance | Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, type B; Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia 1 | 2021-08-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 1070 of the APOB protein (p.Asp1070Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APOB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 630412). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The asparagine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV002442597 | SCV002612332 | uncertain significance | Cardiovascular phenotype | 2023-05-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.D1070N variant (also known as c.3208G>A), located in coding exon 21 of the APOB gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3208. The aspartic acid at codon 1070 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and asparagine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
