The NM_001148.6(ANK2):c.1881+8C>G variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000971 in 1,613,060 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 12 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★).
ANK2 (HGNC:493): (ankyrin 2) This gene encodes a member of the ankyrin family of proteins that link the integral membrane proteins to the underlying spectrin-actin cytoskeleton. Ankyrins play key roles in activities such as cell motility, activation, proliferation, contact and the maintenance of specialized membrane domains. Most ankyrins are typically composed of three structural domains: an amino-terminal domain containing multiple ankyrin repeats; a central region with a highly conserved spectrin binding domain; and a carboxy-terminal regulatory domain which is the least conserved and subject to variation. The protein encoded by this gene is required for targeting and stability of Na/Ca exchanger 1 in cardiomyocytes. Mutations in this gene cause long QT syndrome 4 and cardiac arrhythmia syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.67).

Variant summary: ANK2 c.1881+8C>G alters a non-conserved intronic nucleotide in intron 17 of the ANK2 gene. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0018 in 277002 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 183-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ANK2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, the variant, c.1881+8C>G, has not been reported in affected individuals via publications. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have ClinVar submissions (after 2014) with classifications of "likely benign/benign." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
