RCV000497538 | SCV000589360 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2016-08-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The L4165R 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. The L4165R 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. This substitution occurs at a position where amino acids with similar properties to Leucine are tolerated across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, missense variants in nearby residues have not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with SYNE1-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014). Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. |
