Genes affected
SCARB2 (HGNC:1665): (scavenger receptor class B member 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a type III glycoprotein that is located primarily in limiting membranes of lysosomes and endosomes. Earlier studies in mice and rat suggested that this protein may participate in membrane transportation and the reorganization of endosomal/lysosomal compartment. The protein deficiency in mice was reported to impair cell membrane transport processes and cause pelvic junction obstruction, deafness, and peripheral neuropathy. Further studies in human showed that this protein is a ubiquitously expressed protein and that it is involved in the pathogenesis of HFMD (hand, foot, and mouth disease) caused by enterovirus-71 and possibly by coxsackievirus A16. Mutations in this gene caused an autosomal recessive progressive myoclonic epilepsy-4 (EPM4), also known as action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome (AMRF). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in the Genome Aggregation Database (Highest reported MAF 0.02% (3/15280) (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/4-76163352-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:206705). This variant amino acid Glutamine (Gln) is present in several species including multiple mammals and is not well conserved among evolutionarily distant species; this suggests that this variant may not impact the protein. Additional computational prediction tools do not suggest an impact. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.

The p.R424Q variant (also known as c.1271G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the SCARB2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1271. The arginine at codon 424 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and glutamine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 424 of the SCARB2 protein (p.Arg424Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs751827409, gnomAD 0.2%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCARB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206705). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SCARB2 protein function. 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.
