RCV002876931 | SCV003238586 | uncertain significance | Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy 5, autosomal dominant | 2022-03-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 2245 of the SYNE2 protein (p.Asp2245Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs552463090, gnomAD 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The glutamic acid amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE2-related conditions. |
