RCV000440858 | SCV000523398 | likely benign | not specified | 2016-02-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. |

RCV001362785 | SCV001558821 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K; Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B1; Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy | 2021-07-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 6 of the POMT1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the POMT1 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant is present in population databases (rs780457748, ExAC 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POMT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 383121). Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. |
