RCV000187173 | SCV000240753 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2017-07-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | p.Asn379Lys (AAC>AAA): c.1137 C>A in exon 8 of the CNTNAP2 gene (NM_014141.5). The Asn379Lys variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. It 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 Asn379Lys variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. However, in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant.The variant is found in INFANT-EPI panel(s). |
