RCV000521179 | SCV000617080 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2015-05-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The E465K variant in the PCNT gene has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The E465K variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common variant in these populations. The E465K variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret E465K as a variant of unknown significance. |
