RCV002008179 | SCV002270967 | uncertain significance | Werner syndrome | 2021-03-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals 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: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). 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 replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 143 of the WRN protein (p.Asp143Tyr). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and tyrosine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). |
