RCV000413396 | SCV000491804 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2016-11-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the SCN8A gene. The E1963K variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; McVean et al., 2012; Exome Variant Server). The E1963K variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution that occurs at a conserved position within the cytoplasmic topological domain. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. |
