Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000262880 SCV000477879 uncertain significance Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive, with axonal neuropathy 2 2018-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Athena Diagnostics Inc RCV002472998 SCV000615156 uncertain significance not provided 2022-09-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools predict that this variant is damaging.

Ambry Genetics RCV002392927 SCV002696000 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2022-02-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.S464L variant (also known as c.1391C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the SETX gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1391. The serine at codon 464 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. The p.S464L alteration was reported in one patient with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) among a cohort of 698 patients, and not seen among 84 cases of familial ALS (Cady J et al. Ann Neurol, 2015 Jan;77:100-13). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is unlikely to be causative of juvenile amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 4 (ALS4); however, its contribution to the development of spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy 2 (SCAN2) is uncertain.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003950295 SCV004761724 uncertain significance SETX-related condition 2024-01-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The SETX c.1391C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser464Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Cady et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25382069). However, it has also been reported in 0.025% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (36 of 250,406 total alleles). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
