Invitae RCV000649558 SCV000771387 pathogenic Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2O 2023-07-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 251 of the DYNC1H1 protein (p.Arg251Cys). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg251 amino acid residue in DYNC1H1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26392352; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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 DYNC1H1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374099). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with spinal muscular atrophy with lower extremity predominance (PMID: 30122514). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency).
Ambry Genetics RCV001266345 SCV001444519 likely pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2020-10-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.751C>T (p.R251C) alteration is located in coding exon 4 of the DYNC1H1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 751, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 251 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), the DYNC1H1 c.751C>T alteration was not observed, with coverage at this position. This alteration has been reported to occur de novo in 4 unrelated patients with SMALED. All patients presented with early onset lower limb muscle weakness and wasting, later onset upper extremity weakness, and mild brain MRI abnormalities. Cognitive function was variable (Chan, 2018). This alteration was also reported in a patient with an unspecified abnormality of the nervous system (Retterer, 2016). A patient with peripheral neuropathy was reported to have a different alteration at the same codon, c.752G>A (p.R251H), by Antoniadi, et al. (2015). The p.R251 amino acid is conserved in available vertebrate species. The in silico prediction for the p.R251C alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic.
