Ambry Genetics | RCV000618745 | SCV000737805 | uncertain significance | Cardiovascular phenotype | 2016-11-17 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.485_489dupTACAC variant, located in coding exon 8 of the RYR2 gene, results from a duplication of TACAC at nucleotide position 485, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P164Yfs*22). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6081 samples (12162 alleles) with coverage at this position. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss of function of RYR2 has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
