Invitae | RCV001232458 | SCV001405018 | uncertain significance | Wilms tumor 1 | 2024-01-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 349 of the GPC3 protein (p.Cys349Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GPC3-related conditions. This missense change has been observed to be homozygous or hemizygous in an individual who did not have the expected clinical features for that genetic result (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 959164). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GPC3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. |
