Invitae | RCV000705042 | SCV000834021 | uncertain significance | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal dominant 1 | 2018-08-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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 is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TERC-related disease. 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 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. |
