RCV001908184 | SCV002148334 | uncertain significance | Werner syndrome | 2021-09-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine with glycine at codon 884 of the WRN protein (p.Arg884Gly). The arginine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and glycine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WRN-related conditions. 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: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. |
