RCV002530106 | SCV000650705 | uncertain significance | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal dominant 2; Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis | 2017-05-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In summary, this variant is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a TERT-related disease. This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 560 of the TERT protein (p.Phe560Leu). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and leucine. |
