Ambry Genetics | RCV002351667 | SCV002651061 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary pancreatitis | 2016-01-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.55+1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 1 of the SPINK1 gene. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice donor site are typically deleterious in nature (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). As such, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. |
