RCV003640276 | SCV004452254 | uncertain significance | Idiopathic generalized epilepsy | 2023-04-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the GABRD gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the GABRD protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GABRD-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. |
