Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001239533 SCV001412411 pathogenic Familial aplasia of the vermis; Meckel-Gruber syndrome 2023-12-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 492 of the MKS1 protein (p.Cys492Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs137853105, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Bardet-Biedl syndrome or Joubert syndrome (PMID: 18327255, 28497568, 34008892; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1393). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MKS1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MKS1 function (PMID: 18327255). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004532272 SCV004115151 uncertain significance MKS1-related disorder 2023-06-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MKS1 c.1476T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys492Trp. This variant has been reported in two individuals with BBS; these two individuals harbored a second variant of uncertain significance in MKS1 (Leitch et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18327255; Summers et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28497568). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-56283840-A-C). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
