Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.770G>A (p.R257Q) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the FADS6 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 770, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 257 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
