RCV005065331 | SCV005690583 | uncertain significance | Developmental delay with autism spectrum disorder and gait instability | 2023-06-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The observed missense c.13473G>C (p.Glu4491Asp) variant in HERC2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Glu4491Asp variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has not been submitted to the ClinVar database. Multiple lines of computational evidence (Polyphen - Benign, SIFT - Tolerated and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predicts conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid at this position on HERC2 gene is predicted as conserved by PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Glu at position 4491 is changed to a Asp changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). |
