PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003982939 SCV004799877 likely benign ATXN1-related condition 2020-07-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications).
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001357459 SCV001552938 likely benign not provided no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The ATXN1 p.Gln208del variant was not identified in the literature but was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs797045409) with cliinical significance as "With uncertain significance allele", Cosmic, LOVD 3.0 and ClinVar (classified as a VUS by the University of Chicago). The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. MutationTaster predicts the variant to be a polymorphism. This variant is an in-frame deletion of CAG resulting in the removal of a Glutamine residue at codon 208; this deletion occurs within the CAG repeat region known to cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 1. As this variant is still within the normal repeat range, it is unlikely to have any damaging effect. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lead towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
