RCV001897236 | SCV002149109 | uncertain significance | Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type a, 12; Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy due to POMK deficiency | 2021-09-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POMK-related conditions. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 161 of the POMK protein (p.Glu161Lys). The glutamic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. |
