Invitae | RCV000688010 | SCV000815606 | 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 arginine with lysine at codon 2021 of the WNK1 protein (p.Arg2021Lys). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and lysine. 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 do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. |
