Invitae | RCV000545760 | SCV000642056 | uncertain significance | Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, Okinawa type; Spastic paraplegia 57, autosomal recessive | 2017-05-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 357 of the TFG protein (p.Tyr357Cys). The tyrosine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tyrosine and cysteine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a TFG-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C25"). In summary, this variant is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
