Invitae | RCV001342106 | SCV001536016 | uncertain significance | Joubert syndrome 14 | 2022-08-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 50 of the TMEM237 protein (p.Leu50Ser). 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM237-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1038758). 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 serine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |
