RCV004720608 | SCV005329281 | uncertain significance | Microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma 3 | 2023-05-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The observed missense c.602C>A(p.Ala201Asp) variant in VSX2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Ala201Asp variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has not been submitted to the ClinVar database. Multiple lines of computational evidences (Polyphen - Probably damaging , SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid change p.Ala201Asp in VSX2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Ala at position 201 is changed to a Asp changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). |
