Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Partners HealthCare Personalized Medicine	RCV000192469	SCV000272498	likely benign	not specified	2018-03-22	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	p.Glu441del in exon 2 of TERT: This variant is classified as likely benign becau se it has been identified in 0.4% (248/68934) of European chromosomes by the Gen ome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs3776 39087). Of note, gibbons have a deletion at this position despite high nearby am ino acid conservation. In addition, although this variant has been reported in s everal studies in individuals with TERT-related conditions, many of these studie s consider the variant to be a polymorphism and the functional evidence availabl e suggests this variant does not have a significant impact on telomere length (Y amaguchi 2005, Calado 2009, Calado 2011, Kirwan 2009, Calado 2011, Fernandez 201 2, Zaug 2013, Maxwell 2016). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1; BS3_Supporting.

GeneDx	RCV000192469	SCV000565612	likely benign	not specified	2016-12-06	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

The interpretation of this variant in the current literature is unclear, with at least 2 publications calling this variant a polymorphism (Yamaguchi 2005 PMID:15814878, Maxwell 2016 PMID:27153395). Functional studies are also conflicting, suggesting either a 40% reduction (compared to WT) to near normal effect of this variant on telomerase enzyme activity (Calado 2009 PMID:19147845, Zaug 2013 PMID:23901009). This variant is also present in 0.3% (248/68934) of European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-1293675-GTCC-G). This variant is present in ClinVar, with discrepant classifications ranging from likely benign to variant of uncertain significance (Variation ID:212398).This variant represents an in-frame deletion of 1 glutamic acid residue in a repeat of 3 glutamic acids. This is not predicted to alter the reading frame, but the ultimate effect of this variant on the protein is unclear. Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.
