RCV000486798 | SCV000571280 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2016-08-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The I642L variant in the GRIN1 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The I642L variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The I642L variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which 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. Missense variants in nearby residues (M641I and Y647S) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with GRIN1-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. The I642L variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant, however the possibility it may be a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. |
