RCV002730165 | SCV003017925 | uncertain significance | Familial aplasia of the vermis; Meckel-Gruber syndrome | 2021-09-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 294 of the RPGRIP1L protein (p.Glu294Asp). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and aspartic acid. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 7, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RPGRIP1L-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. |
