Invitae | RCV000457698 | SCV000552240 | likely pathogenic | CHARGE association | 2016-09-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 8 of the CHD7 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a CHD7-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may alter RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. In summary, donor and acceptor splice site variants are typically loss-of-function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CHD7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16400610, 22461308). However, without additional functional and/or genetic data, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
