RCV002472113 | SCV002768522 | uncertain significance | Leukoencephalopathy-thalamus and brainstem anomalies-high lactate syndrome | 2019-08-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A heterozygous deletion variant was identified, NM_001308211.1(EARS2):c.1549delC in exon 8 of 8 of the EARS2 gene (NB: This variant is non-coding in the predominant transcript, NM_001083614.1). This deletion is predicted to cause a frameshift from amino acid position 517 introducing a stop codon 15 residues downstream, NP_001295140.1(EARS2):p.(His517Ilefs*15), resulting in loss of normal protein function through truncation. The variant is not present in the gnomAD population database. It has not been previously observed in clinical cases. No additional variants also resulting in a premature stop codon have been reported downstream. Based on information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as a VARIANT of UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS). |
