Genes affected
SLC17A5 (HGNC:10933): (solute carrier family 17 member 5) This gene encodes a membrane transporter that exports free sialic acids that have been cleaved off of cell surface lipids and proteins from lysosomes. Mutations in this gene cause sialic acid storage diseases, including infantile sialic acid storage disorder and and Salla disease, an adult form. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

-
Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

Likely benign based on allele frequency in 1000 Genomes Project or ESP global frequency and its presence in a patient with a rare or unrelated disease phenotype. NOT Sanger confirmed. -

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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: The SLC17A5 c.246G>A (p.Ala82Ala) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a polymorphism outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 11883/121310 control chromosomes (671 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.0979557, which is approximately 41 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic SLC17A5 variant (0.0023717), strong evidence that this variant is a benign polymorphism. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Due to the synonymous nature of the variant, the lack of predicted effect on splicing and the high frequency in the contol population, this variant is classified as benign. -
