RCV000489209 | SCV000577060 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2017-04-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The W2418R variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The W2418R variant is observed in 6/66684 (0.01%) alleles from individuals of European background (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, missense variants in nearby residues have not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with nemaline myopathy (Stenson et al., 2014). |
Invitae | RCV000559394 | SCV000640855 | uncertain significance | Nemaline myopathy 2 | 2019-10-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces tryptophan with arginine at codon 2418 of the NEB protein (p.Trp2418Arg). The tryptophan residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tryptophan and arginine. This variant is present in population databases (rs780437384, ExAC 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a NEB-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "unavailable"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on NEB function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
