GeneDx RCV000123874 SCV000167218 benign not specified 2013-04-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.
Eurofins Ntd Llc (ga) RCV000123874 SCV000337858 likely benign not specified 2015-12-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000407859 SCV000467004 benign LEOPARD syndrome 3 2018-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000301216 SCV000467005 likely benign Noonan syndrome 7 2018-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000587286 SCV000698343 benign not provided 2017-02-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRAF c.-5A>G variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide in 5 UTR region. This variant was found in 10/5008 control chromosomes from 1000 Genomes at a frequency of 0.0019968, which is approximately 799 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRAF variant (0.0000025. The variant is found in East Asian population with an allele frequency of 1% (10/1008), suggesting it is a benign polymorphism mainly found in East Asian population. The allele frequency of this variant in ExAC and gnomad (early version) is 1.5% (2/130 chromosomes) and 1.3% (97/7260 chromosomes), respectively. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as benign/likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as Benign.
Genome Diagnostics Laboratory, The Hospital for Sick Children RCV001813382 SCV002060472 benign Noonan syndrome and Noonan-related syndrome 2020-07-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003952640 SCV004774869 benign BRAF-related condition 2019-07-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications).
