This variant is reported as uncertain significance in ClinVar (Variation ID: 468494), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.078% (212/272,300 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The lysine at codon 827 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Lys827Glu variant is uncertain at this time. References: Vasco G, et al.

A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Ambry Genetics RCV002456164 SCV002737495 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2022-01-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.K827E variant (also known as c.2479A>G), located in coding exon 8 of the SETX gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2479. The lysine at codon 827 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001000648 SCV005185516 likely benign not specified 2024-05-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: SETX c.2479A>G (p.Lys827Glu) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00084 in 246404 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0014 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SETX causing Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Type 4 phenotype. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2479A>G in individuals affected with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Type 4 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468494). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
