RCV003613778 | SCV004487104 | uncertain significance | Werner syndrome | 2022-12-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 29 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. 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. This sequence change falls in intron 28 of the WRN gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the WRN protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WRN-related conditions. |
