Genes affected
VAPA (HGNC:12648): (VAMP associated protein A) The protein encoded by this gene is a type IV membrane protein. It is present in the plasma membrane and intracellular vesicles. It may also be associated with the cytoskeleton. This protein may function in vesicle trafficking, membrane fusion, protein complex assembly and cell motility. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 17, 2023The c.502A>G (p.T168A) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the VAPA gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 502, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 168 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
