RCV001154902 | SCV001316296 | uncertain significance | Obesity due to SIM1 deficiency | 2017-04-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. |

RCV004548032 | SCV004119834 | uncertain significance | SIM1-related disorder | 2024-08-26 | no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | The SIM1 c.1054C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro352Ser. This variant has been reported in an individual with Prader-Willi-like syndrome (Geets et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26795956). However, this variant was shown to have functional activity similar (92%) to wild type SIM1 activity (https://www.rhythmtx.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Vogel-Biochemical-Characterization-of-SIM1.pdf; Vogel et al. 2022. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2022.01.050). This variant is reported in 0.033% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. |
