RCV003513700 | SCV004298994 | pathogenic | X-linked myopathy with postural muscle atrophy | 2023-11-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 153 of the FHL1 protein (p.Cys153Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of FHL1-related conditions (PMID: 23965743; Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant disrupts the p.Cys153 amino acid residue in FHL1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18274675, 23965743). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
