Invitae | RCV001379576 | SCV001577400 | likely pathogenic | Congenital muscular hypertrophy-cerebral syndrome | 2020-10-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SMC1A-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine with phenylalanine at codon 1115 of the SMC1A protein (p.Cys1115Phe). The cysteine residue is moderately conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and phenylalanine. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys1115 amino acid residue in SMC1A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SMC1A protein function. |
