Invitae RCV000554146 SCV000636585 uncertain significance Kleefstra syndrome 1 2017-06-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change falls in intron 17 of the EHMT1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the EHMT1 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a EHMT1-related disease. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are relatively common causes of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). 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, this variant has uncertain impact on EHMT1 function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
