RCV001948245 | SCV002201204 | uncertain significance | Familial aplasia of the vermis; Meckel-Gruber syndrome | 2020-12-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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 output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The phenylalanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TCTN1-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces leucine with phenylalanine at codon 13 of the TCTN1 protein (p.Leu13Phe). The leucine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between leucine and phenylalanine. |
