Invitae | RCV000526522 | SCV000630822 | uncertain significance | Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy | 2019-12-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 274 of the FKTN protein (p.Arg274Trp). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. This variant is present in population databases (rs558187116, ExAC 0.05%) but has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a FKTN-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C35"). In summary, this variant is a rare missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. Because it is found in the population at an appreciable frequency, this variant is not anticipated to cause disease. However, the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |

RCV001169710 | SCV001332474 | 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. |
