RCV000557904 | SCV000656541 | uncertain significance | Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 1; Congenital myasthenic syndrome 11 | 2016-08-17 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces tyrosine with histidine at codon 59 of the RAPSN protein (p.Tyr59His). The tyrosine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tyrosine and histidine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a RAPSN-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
