GeneDx RCV000413936 SCV000492340 uncertain significance not specified 2016-12-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the TMEM237 gene. The R33C variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The R33C variant is observed in 20/3490 (0.6%) alleles from individuals of African background (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The R33C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position where amino acids with similar properties to Arginine are tolerated across species. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000945894 SCV001301713 uncertain significance Joubert syndrome 14 2018-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.
