Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	RCV001101270	SCV001257870	uncertain significance	Cone-rod dystrophy 10	2018-01-13	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	RCV001101271	SCV001257871	likely benign	Retinitis pigmentosa	2018-01-13	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV001222142	SCV001394229	uncertain significance	not provided	2023-10-06	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 332 of the SEMA4A protein (p.Gly332Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs144475266, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SEMA4A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 876464). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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.
