RCV000501611 | SCV000592892 | uncertain significance | Polycystic kidney disease | no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | The PKHD1 p.Arg1235Gln variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Clinvitae database, the ClinVar database, GeneInsight COGR database, RWTH AAachen University ARPKD database and PKHD1-LOVD. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs rs567239866) as “NA”, COSMIC (1x in an endometrioid carcinoma, with note variant of unknown origin), the 1000 Genomes Project in 1 of 5000 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0002), HAPMAP-EUR in 1005 of 1006 chromosomes (frequency: 0.999), and the Exome Aggregation Consortium database (March 14, 2016) in 4 of 120576 chromosomes (freq. 0.00003) in the following populations: South Asian in 3 (1 homozygous) of 16466 chromosomes (freq. 0.00018), European (Non-Finnish) in 1 of 66270 chromosomes (freq. .000015), but was not seen in African, East Asian, Finnish, Latino and other populations; increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin. The p.Arg1235 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant amino acid Gln is present in macaque, opossum, platypus, and chicken, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. |
