RCV000799296 | SCV000938952 | uncertain significance | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 1; Perry syndrome; Neuronopathy, distal hereditary motor, type 7B | 2018-09-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with glutamine at codon 232 of the DCTN1 protein (p.Glu232Gln). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and glutamine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DCTN1-related disease. 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 disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. |
