RCV003337955 | SCV004048417 | likely pathogenic | Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome, myopathic form | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The missense variant p.R134S in TK2 (NM_004614.5) has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.R134S variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. There is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and serine. The p.R134S missense variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The arginine residue at codon 134 of TK2 is conserved in all mammalian species. The nucleotide c.402 in TK2 is predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. Since the variant is present in trans with a Likely pathogenic variant, Therefore for these reasons the variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. The observed variant was also detected in heterozygous state in the father. |
