Genetic Variant TUBB4B:c.-15_-4dupGCCGCCGCCGCC (chr9-137241340-C-CCCGCCGCCGCCG) – ACMG Classification: Likely_benign (-4 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BS2

The NM_006088.6(TUBB4B):c.-15_-4dupGCCGCCGCCGCC variant causes a 5 prime UTR change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000377 in 1,590,700 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.
