RCV001911574 | SCV002168148 | uncertain significance | Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy | 2022-07-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 796 of the POLG protein (p.Lys796Arg). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1400945). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLG-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). |
