RCV002235403 | SCV000961402 | likely pathogenic | Epidermodysplasia verruciformis | 2021-07-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 8 of the TMC6 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TMC6-related disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in TMC6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15042430, 17139267). |
