RCV000493740 | SCV000583338 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2017-05-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A variant that is likely pathogenic has been identified in the PCDH19 gene. The c.1478_1485delTGCCGTCG variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.1478_1485delTGCCGTCG variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The c.1478_1485delTGCCGTCG variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Valine 493, changes this amino acid to an Alanine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 27 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Val493AlafsX27. This likely pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. |
