Ambry Genetics | RCV000575767 | SCV000667009 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2016-01-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.L1060W variant (also known as c.3179T>G), located in coding exon 21 of the RAD50 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 3179. The leucine at codon 1060 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6502 samples (13004 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.001% (greater than 120000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.L1060W remains unclear. |
