RCV001340264 | SCV001534065 | uncertain significance | Klippel-Feil syndrome 1, autosomal dominant; Isolated microphthalmia 4; Microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma 6; Leber congenital amaurosis 17 | 2020-02-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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 are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with GDF6-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 295 of the GDF6 protein (p.Glu295Lys). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. |
