Invitae | RCV002029825 | SCV002115975 | uncertain significance | Microphthalmia with brain and digit anomalies; Orofacial cleft 11 | 2021-06-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 6 of the BMP4 protein (p.Arg6Gln). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and glutamine. This variant is present in population databases (rs377379589, ExAC 0.01%). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BMP4-related conditions. |
