Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM2 BP4

The NM_004171.4(SLC1A2):c.1653+5A>G variant causes a splice donor 5th base, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000153 in 1,307,468 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).

Genes affected

SLC1A2 (HGNC:10940): (solute carrier family 1 member 2) This gene encodes a member of a family of solute transporter proteins. The membrane-bound protein is the principal transporter that clears the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate from the extracellular space at synapses in the central nervous system. Glutamate clearance is necessary for proper synaptic activation and to prevent neuronal damage from excessive activation of glutamate receptors. Improper regulation of this gene is thought to be associated with several neurological disorders. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been identified.

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. 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLC1A2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change falls in intron 10 of the SLC1A2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC1A2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
