Invitae | RCV000700127 | SCV000828869 | uncertain significance | Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, type B; Hypobetalipoproteinemia, familial, 1 | 2018-06-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine with histidine at codon 297 of the APOB protein (p.Arg297His). The arginine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. This variant is present in population databases (rs147223101, ExAC 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant (PMID: 28166811). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with APOB-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. |
Color | RCV000771617 | SCV000904221 | uncertain significance | Familial hypercholesterolemias | 2018-06-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This variant (also known as p.Arg270His in the mature protein) is a missense variant located in the beta alpha 1 domain of the APOB protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact the RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has the variant been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia in the literature. This variant has been identified in 25/277242 chromosomes the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the pathogenicity of this variant conclusively. |
