RCV000598560 | SCV000710041 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2018-01-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CACNA1C gene. The c.5201delG variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.5201delG variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The c.5201delG variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glycine 1734, changes this amino acid to an Alanine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 106 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gly1734AlafsX106. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, other frameshift variants have not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with with CACNA1C-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014). Based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. |
