RCV002909372 | SCV003256802 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive ataxia, Beauce type; Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy 4, autosomal dominant | 2021-12-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is present in population databases (rs747938942, gnomAD 0.02%). This sequence change falls in intron 71 of the SYNE1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SYNE1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE1-related conditions. 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 is not likely to affect RNA splicing. |
