RCV003803071 | SCV004592970 | uncertain significance | Aniridia 1; Irido-corneo-trabecular dysgenesis | 2024-01-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 78 of the PAX6 protein (p.Val78Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PAX6-related conditions. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PAX6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Val78 amino acid residue in PAX6. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 30167917, 34415986). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. |
