Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001864393 SCV002130120 uncertain significance not provided 2025-01-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg299Alafs*4) in the LETM1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in LETM1 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs775607436, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LETM1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1370872). 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV005238027 SCV005887490 uncertain significance not specified 2025-01-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: LETM1 c.888_889delAG (p.Arg299AlafsX4) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, however current evidence is not sufficient to establish loss of function as a mechanism for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 251046 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in LETM1 causing Neurodegeneration, Childhood-Onset, With Multisystem Involvement Due To Mitochondrial Dysfunction, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.888_889delAG in individuals affected with Neurodegeneration, Childhood-Onset, With Multisystem Involvement Due To Mitochondrial Dysfunction and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1370872). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
