Ambry Genetics | RCV001012251 | SCV001172682 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-02-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.A53T variant (also known as c.157G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the MUTYH gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 157. The amino acid change results in alanine to threonine at codon 53, an amino acid with similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 2, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
