RCV000220332 | SCV000279005 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2014-08-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The M489L variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The M489L variant was not observed in approximately 6,400 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. However, the M489L variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties and 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 mutation or a rare benign variant. |
