Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	RCV001161723	SCV001323620	uncertain significance	Meckel syndrome, type 3	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.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV001307480	SCV001496895	pathogenic	Familial aplasia of the vermis; Meckel-Gruber syndrome	2024-01-12	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 696 of the TMEM67 protein (p.Leu696Phe). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Joubert syndrome (PMID: 26092869). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217729). 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 expected to disrupt TMEM67 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Leu696 amino acid residue in TMEM67. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV001804938	SCV002051244	uncertain significance	not specified	2024-05-30	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: TMEM67 c.2086C>T (p.Leu696Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250834 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2086C>T has been reported in the literature in at least one compound heterozygous individual affected with Joubert Syndrome And Related Disorders (Bachmann-Gagescu_2015). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26092869). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217729). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
