RCV000271903 | SCV000330545 | pathogenic | not provided | 2016-05-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.146_149dupGCCG pathogenic variant in the SCNN1G gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Leucine 51, changes this amino acid to a Proline residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 67 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Leu51ProfsX67. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.146_149dupGCCG variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.146_149dupGCCG as a pathogenic variant. |
