The c.202G>A (p.G68S) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the IFNA4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 202, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 68 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
