Invitae | RCV002036479 | SCV002311319 | uncertain significance | Peutz-Jeghers syndrome | 2021-04-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 2 of the STK11 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the STK11 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. 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. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the effect of this variant on mRNA splicing is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with STK11-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). |
Ambry Genetics | RCV002346328 | SCV002621227 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2021-08-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.374+5C>A intronic variant results from a C to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 2 in the STK11 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
