RCV001340653 | SCV001534476 | uncertain significance | Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 2A; Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 7 | 2020-03-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with tyrosine at codon 98 of the SCN9A protein (p.Phe98Tyr). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and tyrosine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SCN9A-related conditions. 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. |
