Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 06, 2021The c.290A>G (p.Y97C) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 4) of the MELK gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 290, causing the tyrosine (Y) at amino acid position 97 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
