Invitae | RCV001047740 | SCV001211720 | uncertain significance | Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4 | 2019-01-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The histidine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FIG4-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces tyrosine with histidine at codon 667 of the FIG4 protein (p.Tyr667His). The tyrosine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tyrosine and histidine. |

RCV003898053 | SCV004709140 | uncertain significance | FIG4-related condition | 2023-12-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The FIG4 c.1999T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr667His. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. |
