RCV000466281 | SCV000543886 | uncertain significance | Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy | 2023-06-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405580). 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). This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 220 of the POLG protein (p.Trp220Ser). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 2, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. |
