RCV001976425 | SCV002261698 | uncertain significance | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor | 2021-09-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 298 of the PDGFRA protein (p.Glu298Asp). The glutamic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and aspartic acid. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PDGFRA-related conditions. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The aspartic acid amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. |
