RCV000417942 | SCV000524787 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2016-02-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.2588-2A>C variant in the NOTCH1 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 16. It is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, either leading to an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, or to an abnormal protein product if the message is used for protein translation. The c.2588-2A>C variant was not observed in approximately 6100 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The c.2588-2A>C variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant, however the possibility it may be a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. |
