RCV001347450 | SCV001541711 | uncertain significance | Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 5 | 2022-07-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 20 of the CNTN2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CNTN2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs769776725, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CNTN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1043356). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. |
