Genes affected

GUCY2C (HGNC:4688): (guanylate cyclase 2C) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that functions as a receptor for endogenous peptides guanylin and uroguanylin, and the heat-stable E. coli enterotoxin. The encoded protein activates the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial diarrhea (autosomal dominant) and meconium ileus (autosomal recessive). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1020*) in the GUCY2C gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 54 amino acid(s) of the GUCY2C protein. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GUCY2C-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
