RCV000412766 | SCV000492181 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2016-11-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1631 G>A variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. It was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Several in-silico splice prediction models predict that c.1631 G>A damages or destroys the donor site of intron 14 and leads to abnormal gene splicing. However, in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change in this individual is unknown. If this variant does not affected splicing, it will result in a C544Y missense substitution. The C544Y variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. |
