Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000634495 SCV000755811 likely pathogenic Dyskeratosis congenita 2020-05-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this in-frame deletion results in compromised telomere maintenance, characterized by shortened telomeres and reduced telomerase activity (PMID: 22058290, 23660516, 21602826, 25992652). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with dyskeratosis congenita (PMID: 9590285, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11583). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant, c.109_111delCTT, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid of the DKC1 protein (p.Leu37del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame.
