PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004528283 SCV000311565 benign FKTN-related disorder 2019-08-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications).
Ambry Genetics RCV000241990 SCV000320317 likely benign Cardiovascular phenotype 2019-04-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001167247 SCV001329717 uncertain significance Dilated cardiomyopathy 1X 2018-01-12 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000245908 SCV001361297 likely benign not specified 2019-08-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: FKTN c.167G>A (p.Arg56His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00053 in 245444 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.007 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.4 fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FKTN causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.005), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. Co-occurrence with another likely pathogenic variant has been reported (TTN c.34782_34785delTTGT, p.C11595fs*9- internal sample), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, there are no reports of c.167G>A in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function in the literature. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar (evaluation after 2014) and 5/6 laboratories cited the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
