| Invitae | RCV001961729 | SCV002248063 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease | 2021-09-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 3979 of the PKHD1 protein (p.Gly3979Arg). The glycine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PKHD1-related conditions. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PKHD1 protein function. 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, 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. |
