Invitae | RCV001244747 | SCV001417990 | uncertain significance | Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy | 2021-12-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 55 of the FKTN protein (p.Trp55Leu). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FKTN-related conditions. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 969407). |
