RCV001069847 | SCV001235044 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2W | 2019-01-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects codon 2 of the LIMS2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the LIMS2 protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with LIMS2-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
