RCV001056142 | SCV001220563 | uncertain significance | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 4; Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive, with axonal neuropathy 2 | 2019-12-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. 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 serine 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SETX-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with serine at codon 56 of the SETX protein (p.Phe56Ser). The phenylalanine residue is weakly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and serine. |
