Ambry Genetics | RCV004683639 | SCV005164556 | uncertain significance | Inborn genetic diseases | 2024-04-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1259G>A (p.R420H) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 8) of the SLC27A4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1259, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 420 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV005208225 | SCV005849173 | uncertain significance | Ichthyosis prematurity syndrome | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The missense c.1259G>A(p.Arg420His) variant in SLC27A4 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Arg420His variant is present with allele frequency of 0.01% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has not been submitted to the ClinVar database. Multiple lines of computational evidences (Polyphen - Probably damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid at this position on SLC27A4 gene is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Arg at position 420 is changed to a His changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). No significant variant in SLC27A4 gene has been detected in the spouse. |
