RCV000841505 | SCV000983475 | likely benign | not provided | 2018-04-09 | 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. |

RCV002538313 | SCV003296735 | uncertain significance | Epidermolysis bullosa simplex 5B, with muscular dystrophy; Epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Ogna type; Epidermolysis bullosa simplex 5C, with pyloric atresia; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q; Epidermolysis bullosa simplex with nail dystrophy | 2024-01-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 23 of the PLEC gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PLEC protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PLEC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 681570). 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. 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. |
