The NM_002474.3(MYH11):c.4396A>C (p.Lys1466Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene MYH11 is a known oncogene (CancerMine: 2 oncogene, 9 driver citations). The gene MYH11 is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 2 oncogene, 9 driver citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000041 (AC=6) in the gnomAD database across 1,461,894 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.00000194. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (★★).

Genes affected

MYH11 (HGNC:7569): (myosin heavy chain 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a smooth muscle myosin belonging to the myosin heavy chain family. The gene product is a subunit of a hexameric protein that consists of two heavy chain subunits and two pairs of non-identical light chain subunits. It functions as a major contractile protein, converting chemical energy into mechanical energy through the hydrolysis of ATP. A chromosomal rearrangement involving this gene is associated with acute myeloid leukemia of the M4Eo subtype. Mutations in this gene are associated with visceral myopathy, megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome 2, and familial thoracic aortic aneurysm 4. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

NDE1 (HGNC:17619): (nudE neurodevelopment protein 1) This gene encodes a member of the nuclear distribution E (NudE) family of proteins. The encoded protein is localized at the centrosome and interacts with other centrosome components as part of a multiprotein complex that regulates dynein function. This protein plays an essential role in microtubule organization, mitosis and neuronal migration. Mutations in this gene cause lissencephaly 4, a disorder characterized by lissencephaly, severe brain atrophy, microcephaly, and severe cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]
