GeneDx RCV000250635 SCV000721564 likely benign not specified 2017-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00037 in 251438 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0006 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 240 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYLK causing Aortopathy phenotype (2.5e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5114+8G>A in individuals affected with Aortopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001000715 SCV001429854 uncertain significance Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 7 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.
