Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong
The NM_001141947.3(CCDC66):c.79C>T(p.His27Tyr) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000456 in 1,534,390 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
CCDC66 (HGNC:27709): (coiled-coil domain containing 66) Enables microtubule binding activity. Involved in cilium assembly; microtubule bundle formation; and regulation of protein localization to cilium. Located in several cellular components, including Flemming body; microtubule cytoskeleton; and photoreceptor inner segment. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

The c.79C>T (p.H27Y) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the CCDC66 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 79, causing the histidine (H) at amino acid position 27 to be replaced by a tyrosine (Y). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
