RCV003498975 | SCV004260205 | likely pathogenic | Herpes simplex encephalitis, susceptibility to, 1 | 2024-01-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the UNC93B1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in UNC93B1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16973841). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with UNC93B1-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
