Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.817A>G (p.K273E) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 8) of the ELOVL2 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 817, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 273 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
