RCV003036876 | SCV003348842 | uncertain significance | Klippel-Feil syndrome 1, autosomal dominant; Isolated microphthalmia 4; Microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma 6; Leber congenital amaurosis 17 | 2022-05-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 242 of the GDF6 protein (p.Ala242Val). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GDF6-related conditions. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The valine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. |
