Invitae RCV000694827 SCV000823289 uncertain significance Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 2A; Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 2C 2018-04-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces alanine with threonine at codon 557 of the WNK1 protein (p.Ala557Thr). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and threonine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with WNK1-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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.
