Invitae RCV000532327 SCV000641099 uncertain significance Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal dominant 1 2017-05-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change occurs in the TERC gene, which encodes an RNA molecule that is not translated into a protein product. TERC is a telomerase RNA template component required for telomeric DNA synthesis. In summary, this variant is a rare sequence change within one of the well-characterized functional domains of TERC. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This variant is located within the BoxH/ACA scaRNA domain of the TERC RNA component, which is required for telomerase activity (PMID: 21844345). Functional studies testing the effect of this variant on TERC secondary structure or function have not been reported. This variant has not been reported in the literature in an individual with a TERC-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency).
