Invitae | RCV001042972 | SCV001206682 | uncertain significance | Chuvash polycythemia; Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome | 2021-09-21 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VHL-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with glutamine at codon 51 of the VHL protein (p.Glu51Gln). The glutamic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and glutamine. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The glutamine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV004031308 | SCV005036668 | likely benign | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-02-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. |
