It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SYNE1 protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 66, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 859570). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). |
