RCV000189424 | SCV000243063 | pathogenic | not provided | 2017-03-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | c.857_858delCA: p.Thr286SerfsX59 in exon 7 in the SLC9A6 gene (NM_006359.2). The normal sequence with the bases that are deleted in braces is: GTCA{CA}GCGA. The c.857_858delCA variant in the SLC9A6 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign polymorphism, to our knowledge. The c.857_858delCA variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Threonine 286, changes this amino acid to a Serine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 59 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Thr286SerfsX59. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.857_858delCA variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.857_858delCA as a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed to be maternally inherited. The variant is found in SLC9A6 panel(s). |
