RCV000798000 | SCV000937592 | uncertain significance | Adams-Oliver syndrome 5 | 2018-10-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces methionine with isoleucine at codon 1806 of the NOTCH1 protein (p.Met1806Ile). The methionine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between methionine and isoleucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs556708225, ExAC 0.06%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant (PMID: 28166811). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with NOTCH1-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The isoleucine 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. |
