RCV001345553 | SCV001539676 | uncertain significance | Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 5 | 2021-08-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This sequence change replaces lysine with methionine at codon 355 of the STXBP2 protein (p.Lys355Met). The lysine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between lysine and methionine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with STXBP2-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. |
