RCV000560388 | SCV000656584 | uncertain significance | Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 1; Congenital myasthenic syndrome 9 | 2021-09-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces leucine with valine at codon 87 of the MUSK protein (p.Leu87Val). The leucine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between leucine and valine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MUSK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 476144). 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 tolerated. 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. |
