RCV002548537 | SCV001555547 | uncertain significance | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal dominant 2; Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis | 2020-07-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TERT-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. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine with glycine at codon 610 of the TERT protein (p.Arg610Gly). The arginine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and glycine. |
