RCV003994495 | SCV004813195 | likely benign | not specified | 2024-02-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: ENG c.1429-8C>T alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.5e-06 in 1606044 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00012 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database (v4.0 dataset). This frequency is higher than the estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in ENG causing Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (4.2e-05), suggesting that this variant is likely not associated with a highly penetrant, early onset dominant disease. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1429-8C>T in individuals affected with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2161109). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. |
