This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant occurs in the TERC gene, which encodes an RNA molecule that does not result in a protein product. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TERC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410643). This variant is located at the 5’ end of the TERC RNA component (PMID: 15082312, 21844345). The functional significance of this region is not well understood. 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. -
