RCV000433367 | SCV000535600 | likely benign | not specified | 2017-10-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. |

RCV000433367 | SCV004223388 | benign | not specified | 2023-11-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: EFEMP2 c.368-18G>A alters a nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00083 in 250412 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.01 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 14 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in EFEMP2 causing Autosomal Recessive Cutis Laxa phenotype (0.00071), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.368-18G>A in individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Cutis Laxa and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. |
