RCV001991019 | SCV002266146 | uncertain significance | Hypoproteinemia, hypercatabolic | 2021-08-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is present in population databases (rs148494241, ExAC 0.01%). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 54 of the B2M protein (p.Asp54Asn). The aspartic acid residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with B2M-related conditions. 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 missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. |
