Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001295380 SCV001484299 uncertain significance Epileptic encephalopathy 2024-09-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 980 of the FASN protein (p.Thr980Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs777367345, gnomAD 0.06%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FASN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 999386). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The methionine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV004035644 SCV004869693 uncertain significance not specified 2024-01-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2939C>T (p.T980M) alteration is located in exon 19 (coding exon 18) of the FASN gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2939, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 980 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
