RCV000459768 | SCV000548119 | uncertain significance | Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection | 2016-09-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces methionine with leucine at codon 68 of the TGFBR2 protein (p.Met68Leu). The methionine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between methionine and leucine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a TGFBR2-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). The leucine amino acid residue is also found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a novel missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV000459768 | SCV003998022 | likely benign | Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection | 2023-06-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. |
