RCV000436324 | SCV000517395 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2016-11-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The Y189H variant in the ACTG2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The Y189H 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. The Y189H variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Based on review of the data in the context of the 2015 ACMG standards and guidelines for the interpretation of sequence variants (Richards et al., 2015), we now interpret Y189H as a variant of uncertain significance. |
