RCV002005272 | SCV002264557 | uncertain significance | Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A2; Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B2; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2N | 2021-03-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces isoleucine with leucine at codon 701 of the POMT2 protein (p.Ile701Leu). The isoleucine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between isoleucine and leucine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POMT2-related conditions. 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 tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. |
