RCV001229128 | SCV001401565 | uncertain significance | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal recessive 5; Pulmonary fibrosis and/or bone marrow failure, Telomere-related, 3 | 2019-08-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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 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. 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: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with RTEL1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine with valine at codon 168 of the RTEL1 protein (p.Ala168Val). The alanine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and valine. |
